Enthought Canopy missing python-config

Question

Enthought Canopy ships without placing python-config in the path and a homebrew formula I'm trying to install wants to rely on the answers it gets from python-config. How should I resolve this? Some answers I've considered:

1. Is there a chance this is provided by a package I don't have installed? If yes, install it and get on with my life.
2. Roll my own python-config and yell at Enthought about it
3. Revise the homebrew formula to use a more reliable way of interrogating how to build against python

Commentary, advice, and other options would be welcome!

Answer 1

You should be able to install python-config using pip . This KB article should help you install it.
