I tried:

Reinstall xcode-select --install;

Reinstalled Python brew install [email protected];

Installed Xcode itself;

None of above helped.

What can be the issue?

Answer 1

this worked for me

CFLAGS="-Wno-error=implicit-function-declaration" pip install reportlab

Answer 2

I found that updating my pip requirements.txt pinned version of reportlab from 3.3.x to 3.5.59 (latest as of today) resolved this issue for me.

I have not yet done any validation of the changes between those versions. YMMV!

Answer 3

Fixed issue by downloading source code and updating src/rl_addons/renderPM/gt1/gt1-namecontext.c

There was

#if defined(_WIN32) || defined(macintosh)
#   include <string.h>
#endif

Seems macintosh is not defined on MacOS Big Sur, added include <string.h> without if statement and build using python setup.py install

Worked.
