Have you got libheif/heif.h in /usr/local/include? If it's located somewhere different correct the path at the bottom of libheif_build.py

[fdoumet]

Using the packaged libheif libraries (through apt-get) didn't work for me. Had to rebuild LibHeif in the Dockerfile as so before installing pyheif:

RUN git clone https://github.com/strukturag/libheif.git libheif \
    && cd libheif \
    && ./autogen.sh \
    && ./configure \
    && make -j4 \
    && make install \
    && ldconfig

[embolon]

Got almost exactly the same error on rapsberry pi running debian buster. I install libheif-dev through apt-get. Didn't try rebuild libheif as @fdoumet mentioned.

[ghost]

Please paste complete Dockerfile into the issue so I can reproduce.

[azin634]

I ran into this issue too using this docker image circleci/python:3.6-node. These are the packages I installed: libheif-dev libde265-dev x265

[azin634]

Also debian buster

[ghost]

I've expanded the list of dirs searched for headers and libs by setup.py
Please try installing again directly from GitHub, e.g. pip install git+https://github.com/david-poirier-csn/pyheif.git

[buddylindsey]

I just wanted to add to this. Using pyheif and trying to install dependencies on github actions. I tried doing just using the github repo still had issues. I ended up needing to do the install and build from scratch per above. That combined with the git repo it worked well.

[ghost]

Probably caused by an old version of libheif. Try updating or building from source if updates not available.

Hi
I am getting error on Mac. Could you please help me. Thanks

@david-poirier-csn something is still wrong on debian buster. Again it works if I manually build libheif-dev.

installing pyheif 0.5.1.
using this docker image circleci/python:3.6-node.
These are the packages I installed: libheif-dev libde265-dev x265 libffi-dev
