New issue 2647: Unable to install headers in virtualenv https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/issues/2647/unable-to-install-headers-in-virtualenv
Zhihao Yuan: The include directory should be virtualized in virtualenv -- such that `venv/include` is a real directory, `venv/include/pypy` links to `/usr/lib/pypy/include` so that a package can install C headers into `venv/include/site`. But right now virtualenv links `venv/include` to `/usr/lib/pypy/include`, causes the header installations fail. Steps to reproduce: virtualenv -p pypy venv . venv/bin/activate # bash assumed pip install bsddb3==6.2.3 # 6.2.4 has another bug under fixing At the last step, permission denied, although the package installs. _______________________________________________ pypy-issue mailing list pypy-issue@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-issue
