python - Building Healpy library - can not find cfitsio library -

i trying build python library healpy. first seek utilize pip. after typing:

>pip install --user healpy

i got result:

>checking if library 'cfitsio' installed >error: no such file or directory

after tried build library on own - downloded sources , builded cfitsio using commands:

>/.configure >make >make install

after doing got libcfitsio.a file, pkg-config folder .pc file , .h files in include folder. after typing:

> python setup.py install

i got same error. got same error after building lib in windows. did have similar problem ? greateful suggestions.

as mentioned in healpy install documentation must specify pkg_config_path environment variable if want utilize external cfitsio or healpix modules:

pkg_config_path=/path/to/local/lib/pkgconfig

note: adapt own path obtain cfitsio compilation process!

then shall able run compilation of healpy...

python healpy
