在virtualenv中安装Gym [atari]

Question

I'm having trouble installing gym-atari in a virtualenv. From what I can tell, it looks like the issue is with zlib, but zlib is installed on the system (so is cmake). Anyone have any ideas? This is on a Gentoo system, for what it's worth:

Any ideas? My only guess is that somehow zlib isn't getting pulled into the virtualenv??? Maybe it's not even zlib though?

Ok, so this was in the end a Gentoo issue -- I'll post the solution in case anyone else has it.

Following the instructions here (with atari-py instead of netifaces) I was able to get a version of the package I could edit. I then added the following to the top of /tmp/atari-py-0.0.18/atari_py/ale_interface/src/emucore/unzip.h:

/* Gentoo removed OF from their copy of zconf.h     (https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=383179) */
/* but our copy of minizip needs it. */
#ifndef OF
#define OF(args) args
#endif

then running pip install . from /tmp/atari-py-0.0.18 did the trick.

For anyone in the future, if the chosen answer does not solve your problem, make sure you have cmake installed. sudo apt install cmake on ubuntu/debian.
