is it possible to install glpk for raspberry pi?

I want to install glpk on a raspberry pi 3. I use a virtual environment testEnv created with venv.

python3 -m venv testEnv

I have allready successfully installed pyomo

python3 -m pip install pyomo

But when I try

python3 -m pip install glpk

I get the following Error:

(testEnv) pi@raspberrypi:~/Desktop/MA-AU/Software-Test $ python3 -m pip install glpk

Solution

  • When you get errors about missing .h files when trying to install a Python library, the reason is usually that the Python library depends on a C library, which the Python package cannot find — possibly because you have not installed it!

    In this case, it looks like running apt-get install libglpk-dev should get the necessary libraries and headers for you.
