Answer 1

** make sure the development packages of libxml2 and libxslt are installed **

From the lxml documentation, assuming you are running a Debian-based distribution :

sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev libxslt-dev python-dev 

For Debian based systems, it should be enough to install the known build dependencies of python-lxml or python3-lxml, e.g.

sudo apt-get install build-dep python3-lxml 

Answer 2

This worked for me:

yum install libxslt-devel libxml2-devel
