It looks like you're using ccache. Try not using ccache but just plain cc...This is probably your problem. If it's not, share your config.log (using cc, not ccache). – Simsar 9/2, 2015 at 17:29

@Carpetsmoker how can I do this? – Chirr 9/2, 2015 at 17:31

My python config.log - > 37.233.101.14/config.log – Chirr 9/2, 2015 at 17:36

Well, ccache is something you or someone enabled manually. You're probably setting the CC environment variable in some shell startup script somewhere ... You can try running setting the CC to gcc before running pip install like so: env CC=gcc pip install gevent – Simsar 9/2, 2015 at 17:40

I give try to gcc but it doesn't help link – Chirr 9/2, 2015 at 18:57

There is solution for my problem enter link description here

Probably this is most important (in place of python2.X type your python ver. eg. python2.7) export PYTHONPATH=$HOME/.local/lib/python/site-packages:$PYTHONPATH
export PYTHONPATH=$HOME/.local/lib/python2.X/site-packages:$PYTHONPATH
export PATH=$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH

The link no longer works... – Butterfield 17/8, 2022 at 9:4

Installing this worked for me,

sudo apt-get install libevent-dev
sudo apt-get install python-all-dev

and then,

pip install greenlet
pip install gevent

It worked for me. First remove gevent from Pipfile.lock

"gevent": {
        "hashes": [
            "sha256:004cdbc6c18b4076acfa256c1794abf87bf9b97e0cfd4136f5098535c4b4132e",
            "sha256:3ae1ca0f533ddcb17aab16ce66b424b3f3b855ff3b9508526915d3c6b73fba31",
            "sha256:704a048005e6389fcb8276113bb9e7d0a3160bc382b9bcc629e398a43645de5c",
            "sha256:80ee22c28dae6dc70c7e4385f0d0292da9eebccf14b90620a32f10d71797838e",
            "sha256:aa224957cbbc028bbdfbec89625c7efa66bb8ddb845ed2fe323bd6b24e919dcf",
            "sha256:f3e8656f0b7bce355f14896d0b644c0a91e01fa12d9d65e6b09faad1d2c06e65"
        ],
        "index": "pypi",
        "version": "==1.0.2"
}

Then install gevent manually pipenv install gevent

Hope it will work for you.

Had a similar issue, upgrading pip with

pip install --upgrade pip

worked for me. Make sure you have the latest version. In my case, I assumed making a new virtual environment automatically provides the latest version but I was wrong.

I managed to solve this same issue on my raspberry pi zero by using a compiled binary instead of pip.

sudo apt-get install python-gevent

Kellerman answered 9/11, 2020 at 15:4 Comment(0)

Besides: sudo apt-get install libevent-dev sudo apt-get install python-all-dev

I also need to install (I used python3) to solve similar issue sudo apt-get install python3-dev

I tried installing a bunch of other packages as described by some of the other answers, so not sure if any of those helped, but the thing that got it working in the end was using easy_install rather than pip:

easy_install gevent

I was getting errors trying to install gevent-websocket 0.10.1 however the problem was solved when I installed greenlet:

pip3 install greenlet

first and then:

pip3 install gevent-websocket
