cairo/device.c:30:10: fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory [SOLVED]

Addition:

A complete search of my PC for 'python.h' finds this:

Have you tried just sudo apt-get install python3-dev (or sudo apt-get install python-dev depending on the version)?

The issue doesn't seem to be PyCharm specific after all.

Thank you VERY much! That solved it. As you can see above, I installed the wrong 'python-dev'-version.

Now only ONE package fail to upgrade:

pip install -U pycups==1.9.74

PyCharm suggests running it from Terminal:

" Try to run this command from the system terminal. Make sure that you use the correct version of 'pip' installed for your Python interpreter located at '/mnt/4AF15A0435E762B4/DataDoc/OneDrive/PycharmProjects/python3/venv/bin/python'. "

But I still get an error. This is the output from Terminal:

henrik@Henrik-L570:/mnt/4AF15A0435E762B4/DataDoc/OneDrive/PycharmProjects/python3/venv/bin$ pip install -U pycups==1.9.74

PLEASE help!

Thank you.

PS: There is no 'cups.h' file on my Ubuntu PC.

I found the solution here:

How to upgrade all Python packages in Kali Linux - https://miloserdov.org/?p=2723 :

The cups/cups.h file is missing, this file is in the libcups2-dev package, install it:

Most of the time these are dependency-issues.  Python.h is used by GNU Compiler Collection (gcc) to build applications. You need to install a package called python-dev for building Python modules, extending the Python interpreter or embedding Python in applications.  You encounter "Python.h: No such file or directory" error while trying to build a shared library using the file extension of another language ( e.g. 'C' ). If you are trying to build a shared library using the file extension of another language, you need to install the correct development version of Python.

Reason for this error:

• You haven't properly installed the header files and static libraries for python dev.
• Also, sometimes include files might not be default in the include path.

How to solve this error:

• Install the missing files and libraries.
• Include Path and Library.
• Finally, Compile it.
