Workaround for failing install on CentOS
sytham opened this issue · comments
Hi, when I pip install this on CentOS, I get a fatal error on #include <sys/capability.h>
(no such file or directory).
I worked around this by cloning from github and running
python setup.py build build_ext -n -I/usr/include
python setup.py install build_ext -n -I/usr/include
Actually, that doesn't seem to have worked entirely. When trying to import, this happens:
Python 2.7.15 |Anaconda, Inc.| (default, Oct 10 2018, 21:32:13)
[GCC 7.3.0] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import prctl
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "prctl.py", line 5, in <module>
import _prctl # The C interface
ImportError: No module named _prctl
Any suggestions?
Using build_ext -I/usr/include -L/usr/lib64
fixed the problem.
