Failed building wheel for subprocess32/configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH錯誤及解決辦法
前言
這是筆者在Ubuntu14.04下使用Python2安裝matplotlib時所出現的錯誤。
其中matplotlib有個依賴的包叫做subprocess32。
這個錯誤就是在安裝subprocess32時發生的。

解決辦法
看到這麼長的錯誤訊息，連要找出關鍵字都有困難，一開始用：
Command “/root/miniconda/envs/test-environment/bin/python -u -c “import setuptools, tokenize;file=’/tmp/pip-install-4EQYjW/subprocess32/setup.py’;f=getattr(tokenize, ‘open’, open)(file);code=f.read().replace(’\r\n’, ‘\n’);f.close();exec(compile(code, file, ‘exec’))” install --record /tmp/pip-record-8KJYcJ/install-record.txt --single-version-externally-managed --compile” failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-install-4EQYjW/subprocess32/
或：
The command ‘/bin/sh -c /$HOME/miniconda/envs/test-environment/bin/pip install subprocess32’ returned a non-zero code: 1
或：
Failed building wheel for subprocess32
這幾個關鍵字搜在網上都找不到有用的解決辦法。
後來仔細讀了錯誤訊息，才發現第一次出現error的地方是：
configure: error: in `/tmp/pip-install-4EQYjW/subprocess32’:
configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
這個錯誤訊息看起來有價值多了。
用這行錯誤訊息拿去網上搜，終於找到no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH when installing python這個問答。
vahid abdi的回答說明了在建構subprocess32這個包時需要有gcc, cc, cl.exe這幾個編譯器其中之一。
但是在環境中卻找不到（configure: error上面三行）：
checking for gcc… no
checking for cc… no
checking for cl.exe… no
因此我們要做的就是安裝gcc這個編譯器，使用以下指令：
apt-get install -y build-essential
之後就可以成功安裝matplotlib。
踩坑記
以下是筆者試過但無效的方法：
- 安裝python-subprocess32
apt-get -y update && apt-get -y upgrade && apt-get install -y python-subprocess32
Reading package lists…
Building dependency tree…
Reading state information…
E: Unable to locate package python-subprocess32
The command ‘/bin/sh -c apt-get install -y python-subprocess32’ returned a non-zero code: 100
不知道為什麼使用了apt-get update及apt-get upgrade之後還會找不到這個包。
- 安裝software-properties-common
apt-get install -y software-properties-common
- 升級pip後再次安裝
pip install --upgrade --force --ignore-installed pip
