Error installing pylint for python3.7 on cygwin about typed_ast HOT 3 CLOSED

Hello,

Thanks a lot for your answer.

I just tried your workaround, and it worked perfectly.
The missing package on my side was pythonXY-devel. I already had gcc-core.

Closing the issue :)

from typed_ast.

Cygwin is not manylinux compatible (it uses newlib instead of glibc) so typed_ast needs to be built from source on that platform. For now you can install the "python-devel" package and it should install fine.

from typed_ast.

I tested this and wheels seem non-optimal since they have the cygwin version in their platform tag. @pjtallon (and if in future someone else comes upon this) if you want to install typed_ast on cygwin, you need the following packages:

• pythonXY where XY is a version like 37
• pythonXY-devel for Python headers we need
• gcc-core for the compiler

With these packages installed you shouldn't have issues installing pylint, mypy, or typed_ast directly.

I think this issue can be closed (I don't have the permissions to)
