I wanted to install eventlet
on my system in order to have "Herd" for software deployment.. but the terminal is showing a gcc error:

Why can't Python.h
be found?
Your install is failing because you don't have the python development headers installed. You can do this through apt on ubuntu/debian with:
sudo apt-get install python-dev
for python3 use:
sudo apt-get install python3-dev
For eventlet
you might also need the libevent
libraries installed so if you get an error talking about that you can install libevent with:
sudo apt-get install libevent-dev
For Fedora:
sudo yum install python-devel
sudo yum install libevent-devel
and finally:
sudo easy_install gevent
What worked for me on CentOS was:
sudo yum -y install gcc
sudo yum install python-devel
unable to execute 'gcc': No such file or directory error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
sudo yum install python34-devel
for python 3.x as the other is only for python 2.x
For Redhat Versions(Centos 7) Use the below command to install Python Development Package
Python 2.7
sudo yum install python-dev
Python 3.4
sudo yum install python34-devel
Python 3.6
sudo yum install python36-devel
If the issue is still not resolved then try installing the below packages -
sudo yum install python-devel
sudo yum install openssl-devel
sudo yum install libffi-devel
No package python-dev available.
I am getting this.
On MacOS I had trouble installing fbprophet
which requires pystan
which requires gcc
to compile. I would consistently get the same error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
I think I fixed the problem for myself thus:
I used brew install gcc
to install the newest version, which ended up being gcc-8
Then I made sure that when gcc
ran it would use gcc-8
instead.
It either worked because I added alias gcc='gcc-8
in my .zshrc
(same as .bashrc
but for zsh), or because I ran export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
(see comment)
Also: all my attempts were inside a virtual environment and I only succeeded by installing fbprophet
globally (with pip), but still no success inside a venv
This is an old post but I just run to the same problem on AWS EC2 installing regex. This working perfectly for me
sudo yum -y install gcc
and next
sudo yum -y install gcc-c++
If it is still not working, you can try this
sudo apt-get install build-essential
in my case, it solved the problem.
shap
library on Ubuntu 20.04.
JPype1
library on python:3.8.13-slim
try this :
sudo apt-get install libblas-dev libatlas-base-dev
I had a similar issue on Ubuntu 14.04. For me the following Ubuntu packages
On MacOS I also had problems trying to install fbprophet
which had gcc
as one of its dependencies.
After trying several steps as recommended by @Boris the command below from the Facebook Prophet project page worked for me in the end.
conda install -c conda-forge fbprophet
It installed all the needed dependencies for fbprophet
. Make sure you have anaconda installed.
marisa-trie
it worked: conda install -c conda-forge python-marisa-trie
This page is gonna save your life, for all further lib issues that are forthcoming,
For Alpine(>=3.6), use
apk --update --upgrade add gcc musl-dev jpeg-dev zlib-dev libffi-dev cairo-dev pango-dev gdk-pixbuf-dev

For openSUSE 42.1 Leap Linux use this
sudo zypper install python3-devel
I am using MacOS catalina 10.15.4. None of the posted solutions worked for me. What worked for me is:
>> xcode-select --install
xcode-select: error: command line tools are already installed, use "Software Update" to install updates
>> env LDFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include -L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib" pip install psycopg2==2.8.4
Collecting psycopg2==2.8.4

Uninstalling psycopg2-2.7.7:

use pip3 for python3
if you are on Mac as myself, try this in your terminal: xcode-select --install
Then accept the installation request, and it works afterwards as described in this issue
Build from source and install, this is fixed in the latest release (10.3+):
mkdir -p /tmp/install/netifaces/
cd /tmp/install/netifaces && wget -O "netifaces-0.10.4.tar.gz" "https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/n/netifaces/netifaces-0.10.4.tar.gz#md5=36da76e2cfadd24cc7510c2c0012eb1e"
tar xvzf netifaces-0.10.4.tar.gz
cd netifaces-0.10.4 && python setup.py install
Similarly I fixed it like this (notice python34
):
sudo yum install python34-devel
sudo apt install gcc
It works for PyCharm on Ubuntu 20.10.
If you are migrating to a more modern version of python3 e.g. python3.5 to python3.8
You may want to check/upgrade the versions of the library that are failing if you have already installed the recommended libraries to handle gcc building python3-dev
+ other libraries as suggested.
It depends on the package. Some versions of the packages may not be supported on later versions of python3.
Success story sharing
sudo yum install python-devel
sudo apt-get update
before running these 2 commands. I was getting error withsudo apt-get install python-dev
.
