how to install python2.7-dev in Linux

Dear all: I am trying to install Falcon for PacBio sequencing assembly. I got this error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1. I am using Python 2.7.10. It seems the solution is to install python2.7-dev. However, I do not have root privilege, so I cannot type "sudo apt-get update" "sudo apt-get install python2.7-dev"

Anybody can help me to install python2.7-dev? Or what else can I do to solve the error? Thanks in advance.

Pure systems questions are better suited for stackexchange.

How did you conclude that is what is the cause of the error you are getting?

If you managed to install pypeFLOW then the second step should work too. You should post all lines that may have error information in them.

What OS are you using? Looks like it is 64-bit, correct?

Based on some searching it is possible that you have an old version of binutils program (you seem to have a pretty old kernel so this is a possibility). Search for "binutils version" and see if you can determine the version of binutils you have. This would likely not be something you would be able to update so you would need to talk with your sys admins about options.

Does ld -v print version of binutils?

I don't why and what happened, I succeed in installing Falcon step. I just re-try my command: [cho.xia@login1 FALCON]$ /home/plant_pathology/cho.xia/software/Python-2.7.10/Python-2.7.10/python setup.py install --prefix=/home/plant_pathology/cho.xia/software/Python-2.7.10/Python-2.7.10

It's so wired. Thanks anyway.
