error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1 while installing eventlet

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

I tried all the above answers. But what worked for me was for CentOS:

sudo yum -y install gcc
sudo yum install python-devel

For Redhat Versions(Centos 7) Use below command to install Python Development Package

Python 2.7

sudo yum install python-dev

Python 3.4

sudo yum install python34-devel

Still if your problem not solved then try installing below packages -

sudo yum install python-devel

sudo yum install openssl-devel

sudo yum install libffi-devel

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

For CentOS 7.2：

LSB Version:    :core-4.1-amd64:core-4.1-noarch
Distributor ID: CentOS
Description:    CentOS Linux release 7.2.1511 (Core)

Install eventlet:

For openSUSE 42.1 Leap Linux use this

sudo zypper install python3-devel

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

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

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++
