“Could not run curl-config: [Errno 2] No such file

问题:

I'm trying to install pycurl via:

sudo pip install pycurl

It downloaded fine, but when when it runs setup.py I get the following traceback:

Downloading/unpacking pycurl
  Running setup.py egg_info for package pycurl
    Traceback (most recent call last):

Any idea why this is happening and how to get around it

回答1:

On Debian I needed the following packages to fix this

sudo apt install libcurl4-openssl-dev libssl-dev

回答2:

Similarly with yum package manager

yum install libcurl-devel

If you use dnf, use

dnf install libcurl-devel

回答3:

in my case this fixed the problem:

sudo apt-get install libssl-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev python-dev

as explained here

回答4:

In Alpine linux you should do:

apk add curl-dev python3-dev libressl-dev

I encountered the same problem whilst trying to get Shinken 2.0.3 to fire up on Ubuntu. Eventually I did a full uninstall then reinstalled Shinken with pip -v. As it cleaned up, it mentioned:

Warning: missing python-pycurl lib, you MUST install it before launch the shinken daemons

Installed that with apt-get, and all the brokers fired up as expected :-)

回答6:

That solved my problem on Ubuntu 14.04:

apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev

回答7:

On OpenSUSE:

zypper in libcurl-devel 

回答8:

In my case i kept getting the same error message. I use fedora. I solved it by doing:

sudo dnf install pycurl

This installed eveything that I needed for it to work.

I had this issue on Mac and it was related to the openssl package being an older version of what it was required by pycurl. pycurl can use other ssl libraries rather than openssl as per my understanding of it. Verify which ssl library you're using and update as it is very likely to fix the issue.

I fixed this by:

• running brew upgrade
• downloaded the latest pycurl-x.y.z.tar.gz from http://pycurl.io/
• extracted the package above and change directory into it
• ran python setup.py --with-openssl install as openssl is the library I have installed. If you're ssl library is either gnutls or nss then will have to use --with-gnutls or --with-nss accordingly. You'll be able to find more installation info in their github repository.
