how to modify the gcc include path when install pycocotools?

Question

I try to install pycocotools using someone else's miniconda environment: pip install pycocotools

but get the following error message:

Building wheels for collected packages: pycocotools
  Building wheel for pycocotools (pyproject.toml) ... error

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

I found that in gcc compile options, there exist such option: -I/home/users/wec.shao/miniconda3/include/python3.8

and this directory path can not be readable for me, now I want to modify this path, but I don't know how to modify this include path?
