Install lxml on Centos 7 - error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 4

Question

I\'m using python 3.4 in a virtual environment:

(af)[root@domain backend]# pip --version
pip 7.1.0 from /home/af/af-stage/backend/.ves/af/lib/python3.4/sit         


        

Answer 1

I updated my lxml version from 3.7.0 to the latest one 4.1.1 and that works for me.

Answer 2

You just need to use yum install python-lxml. Of course, lxml module depend on libxml2 libxslt libxml2-devel libxslt-devel.

Answer 3

This worked for me: yum install -y libxml2 libxml2-devel libxslt libxslt-devel
