Pyconcrete setup.py install Error

Question

I am having an issue with the pyconcrete installation from source,

src/pyconcrete_ext/pyconcrete.c:18:20: fatal error: Python.h: No such file or 
directory
compilation terminated.
error: command 'x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit status 1

I am running it how the github readme tells me to, which is python setup.py install

I Use the default passphrase, and get the same error every time.

Any help?

The linked answer suggests you haven't yet installed the header files and static libraries for python dev. And can install them using your distribution's package manager, see suggested command in the link — chickity china chinese chicken, Aug 25 '17 at 00:56
Okay I think that is the problem - the solution will be different on Windows than on Ubuntu. On your windows machine, install [Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44266) and then try compiling/installing `pyconcrete` again — chickity china chinese chicken, Sep 11 '17 at 05:04

For pyconcrete support on windows, please pull the latest code.

Follow the below steps

Install VisualStudio 2008 or MSVC for Python2.7
Open VS2008 Command Prompt
set DISTUTILS_USE_SDK=1
set SET MSSdk=1
create distutils.cfg and put inside
```
[build]
compiler=msvc
```
python setup.py install
