Root Cause

Missing build dependencies (e.g., compiler, headers) for a package with native extensions.

generic

中文

缺少具有本地扩展的包的构建依赖项（如编译器、头文件）。

Workarounds

  1. 90% success Install system build tools 
    apt-get install build-essential (Linux) or xcode-select --install (macOS)
  2. 60% success Use a pre-built wheel if available 
    pip install package_name --only-binary :all:

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. Installing the package with --no-cache-dir 40% fail

    Cache is not the issue; missing dependencies remain.

  2. Upgrading pip to latest 30% fail

    Pip version doesn't provide system build tools.
