I am installing a python module that require compilation inside a conda environment. The base installation fails because pip is not looking for the Python.h file in the proper location. To fix this, I have found I need to tell it the include path using --global-option My command is
pip install -e . --global-option="-I/home/paperspace/anaconda3/envs/fitrm/include/python3.7m"
This returns an error
│ exit code: 1
╰─> [6 lines of output]
usage: setup.py [global_opts] cmd1 [cmd1_opts] [cmd2 [cmd2_opts] ...]
or: setup.py --help [cmd1 cmd2 ...]
or: setup.py --help-commands
or: setup.py cmd --help
error: option -I not recognized
[end of output]
I have found that others have similar errors but received no answers.
Any thoughts of suggestions will be helpful.
