I am trying to install transcrypt into a python virtual environment using pip. Here's what happens: 

username@host:~/Pycryptor$ source env/bin/activate
(env) username@host:~/Pycryptor$ pip install transcrypt

Same result when I use pip3.

I have python 3.5 and 3.6 installed. python3-dev version is 3.5.3-1. Python.h is located in /usr/include/python3.5m/Python.h. GCC is already the newest version (4:6.3.0-2ubuntu1).

What could be causing this error:

error: command 'i686-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit status 1 ?

  • Your output is trying to install for python 3.6. You need the "-dev" package, including Python.h for that version. Commented Jan 24, 2018 at 6:58

  • While the solution to this question is indeed given by the link provided by @phd, it's probably wise to keep it open, since someone running into this problem is unlikely to look there, given the title that specifically includes mysql-python. Commented Jan 25, 2018 at 8:34
  • apt install python3-dev Commented Apr 16, 2019 at 2:43
