I think it's a problem with the way we've packaged pygame. If I'm right, you'll need to install it another way - either:
1. Get the source code of pygame (https://github.com/pygame/pygame ), make sure you have all the dependencies installed, and compile it yourself. 2. Or use a platform package manager (like apt or dnf) to install it.
