Root Cause

The package uses a pyproject.toml build system and pip failed to build a wheel, often due to missing build dependencies or compiler errors.

generic

中文

该包使用 pyproject.toml 构建系统,pip 无法构建 wheel,通常是由于缺少构建依赖或编译错误。

Workarounds

  1. 85% success
    sudo apt-get install build-essential python3-dev
  2. 80% success
    pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel
  3. 70% success
    pip install package --only-binary :all:

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. 60% fail

    This can help but often fails if build dependencies are not already installed.

  2. 90% fail

    The underlying build issue persists on retry.

  3. 95% fail

    Permissions are not the root cause; the build still fails.
