I have been trying to install the Pillow package using pip (python version 3.6, Pillow version 8.4, Linux virtual machine). Several other answers have suggested installing the developer package but I do not have sudo privileges.
I am getting "fatal error: Python.h: no such file or directory" with "error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1"
I have tried both:
python3 -m pip install Pillow
and
python3 -m pip install Pillow --upgrade
Both give the below output/error (>20 successful compilation lines were omitted to meet submission requirements)
