Dependencies almost always are present in distro repos. What's tricky?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you need the python header files, depending on your distro, you may need to install python3-dev, python3-devel, python3, or some other variation on the name. For a novice, this might not always be obvious and they might not know things like apt-file are helpful for figuring it out.

Huh. Shouldn't apt install header dependencies too? I'm using system where every package comes with headers, so I don't install headers separately.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Debian and RedHat based distros typically do not bundle them together. The have separate -dev and -devel packages for headers.
