I report the same issue. In fact, multiple students in my classroom with different operating systems (mac os, windows, windows) have it.

[bricoletc]

I had the same issue on my Ubuntu machine - clang is trying to pull in "Python.h", a header file used to build python extensions. In my case I ran apt install python3-dev to obtain the header and it all worked. More info here :-)

[LaniakeaS]

any updates?

Same issue on Ubuntu with Python 3.10. With Python 3.8 it worked.

[janluke]

It's simply due to the fact the author doesn't build and push wheels for python > 3.8: https://pypi.org/project/datrie/#files

Are there any solutions for 3.10?

I found a solution: just download whl file and change its name to the version of your python. For example, I download "datrie-0.8.2-pp373-pypy36_pp73-win32.whl" and change it to "datrie-0.8.2-cp310-none-any.whl". Then running " pip install ......\Downloads\datrie-0.8.2-cp310-none-any.whl".

Any solutions? I'm running python 3.12.7. Getting the same issue on Ubuntu.

Ran into a similar issue: no wheel for macOS ARM (python 3.13), and the build failed due to a missing llvm-ar. It seems the build process doesn't check the system PATH for llvm-ar. To fix, I was able to explicitly set the AR environment variable when installing.

For example, with uv:

AR=/opt/homebrew/opt/llvm/bin/llvm-ar uvx --with=datrie ipython
# Installed 17 packages in 63ms
# Python 3.13.0 (main, Oct 16 2024, 08:05:40) [Clang 18.1.8 ]
# Type 'copyright', 'credits' or 'license' for more information
# IPython 8.29.0 -- An enhanced Interactive Python. Type '?' for help.
# 
# [ins] In [1]: import datrie

or with pip:

AR=/opt/homebrew/opt/llvm/bin/llvm-ar pip install datrie

I had to brew install llvm as well. Hopefully that helps others.
