Python - python setup.py egg_info command failed with error code 1 in / tmp / pip-build-21ft0H / pandas

Question

I am using Centos 7 and Python 2.7.5. The problem is that when I install Pandas, I received this error message

SystemError: Cannot compile 'Python.h'. Perhaps you need to install python-dev|python-devel. ---------------------------------------- Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-21ft0H/pandas 

I have already tried many solutions, but did not even have time to yum -y update .

• Unable to install via pip due to egg_info error
• Python installation error: invalid egg_info command
• https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-python-2-7-6-and-3-3-3-on-centos-6-4
• pip cannot install anything, error: invalid command 'egg_info'

Answer 1

I have already found the answer. I need to install python via RPM.

 rpm -i ftp://195.220.108.108/linux/centos/7.1.1503/updates/x86_64/Packages/python-2.7.5-18.el7_1.1.x86_64.rpm

Distribution has been integrated in Setuptools since version 0.7. If you are using version <= 0.6, upgrade using pip install --upgrade setuptools or easy_install -U setuptools .

just run this command:

sudo apt-get install python3.6-dev libmysqlclient-dev

In my case, for continuous integration work:

 before_script: - apk update && apk add python3-dev - apk add --no-cache python3-dev libstdc++ - apk add --update curl gcc g++ - ln -s /usr/include/locale.h /usr/include/xlocale.h - pip3 install numpy - pip3 install pandas - rm -rf /var/cache/apk/* - python -V - python -m pip install --upgrade pip - python -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel --user --no-cache-dir 

Answer 7

I got this error when installing mysqlclient from pip3

So, I ran the command:

sudo apt-get install python3.6-dev libmysqlclient-dev

After executing this command, I was able to successfully install mysqlclient

Note: - Version number 3.6 should be replaced by your version of Python.
