This worked for me:

sudo apt-get install liblink-grammar4-dev

Besides installing the liblink-grammar4 package also install liblink-grammar4-dev package which is available in synaptic.

I had been grappling with the same for over an hour and it worked for me

You first need to install the liblink-grammar4 library:

If you're on ubuntu system, you can run:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:python-pylinkgrammar/getsome
sudo apt-get install liblink-grammar4

If you're on a different flavor of linux, just make sure liblink-grammar4 is installed.

right, because it's looking for a header file that exists in the debian package. Install that using the commands in my answer, and then retry pip installing. – John Brodie Feb 02 '13 at 06:25
