I am trying to run the pip install -e . and getting the below error:

The Python version that I am using is 3.9. NOTE: I am running the source code inside a docker container.

Can someone please help me with it?

The steps I have taken to fix the issue but didn't help: I tried installing these pip install wheel setuptools but still, the error exists.

Closing this issue as it was an issue with my docker image, I was using Alpine which has some of the libraries not available in the Linux distro to make the image size low. Instead of using Alpine, I used another Linux distro that has all the dependencies available and it solved the issue. The package that was missing is gcc.
