Hi Joseph! Welcome! Note this list is for the development of Python itself, not for usage or installation issues. The Python Developer's Guide (https://docs.python.org/devguide/) including its FAQ gives information about mailing lists and other support forums to get help with general Python issues. That said, without more information, it would be difficult to know exactly what problem you are running into but, since you mention missing headers, my guess is that you need to install Apple's Command Line Tools as described here: https://docs.python.org/devguide/setup.html#build-dependencies Installing Xcode by itself is not sufficient. The sysroot and flag values you note in _sysconfigdata.py are normal and there for compatibility with installing on older versions of OS X; they should not cause a problem on newer releases. For what it's worth, I was able to install ZODB with the current python.org 3.5.1 on OS X 10.11.4 using either venv or virtualenv. Good luck! --Ned P.S.
