PR summary
When installing
matplotlib
in editable mode on Windows, the build fails with the error:fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'pybind11/pybind11.h': No such file or directory
This issue arises because the standard
pybind11
installation does not place headers in a globally accessible location. By specifyingpybind11[global]
, the headers are installed in a location where build tools like Meson can find them, resolving the compilation error.Summary of changes:
requirements/dev.txt
to requirepybind11[global]
instead of justpybind11
.References:
See pybind11 documentation on global installation.
