Failed building wheel for ffpyplayer

[bbtftf]

Hi,

 

I am getting the message above when trying to run:

 pip3 install ffpyplayer

Then the following message:

Running setup.py clean for ffpyplayer

 

And here I get:

 

     #include "libavcodec/packet.h"
              ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    compilation terminated.
    error: command 'arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc' failed with exit status 1

Question:

Any tips for getting this fixed?

Note:
Installing ffmpeg worked fine before with:

sudo apt-get install ffmpeg

and:

ffmpeg -version

delivers:

I have the same problem.

Usually it means that you need to install a *-dev package

 

apt-cache search ffmpeg-dev  ... or try other key words

 

Also make sure you have installed build-common and python3-dev

 

If you cant install with pip, is it available in debian? apt-cache search python3 |grep ffmpeg
