Errors during installation of pycurl

If you are installing pycurl via pip ( a python package manager), you will get a number of errors during the build process. It happens as you are not having the required dependencies installed on the system and these can be fixed easily.

The simple solution to get rid of all the errors mentioned below is (Ubuntu/Debian platform):

$ sudo apt install python-dev libssl-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev

Now, install pycurl as you originally intended!
$ sudo pip install pycurl


The most common errors and their fixes are listed below:
