Pip-Install Fails on Python-Ldap [CentOS7]

[vangourd]

Attempting to install on CentOS 7

1. Run yum dependencies installs python-pip python-dev...etc

2. sudo pip install realms-wiki

Where the trouble begins:

Rolling back uninstall of python-ldap Command "/usr/bin/python2 -u -c "import setuptools, tokenize;__file__='/tmp/pip-build-HhyOmZ/python-ldap/setup.py';exec(compile(getattr(tokenize, 'open', open)(__file__).read().replace('\r\n', '\n'), __file__, 'exec'))" install --record /tmp/pip-4KeEPc-record/install-record.txt --single-version-externally-managed --compile" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-HhyOmZ/python-ldap/

This was actually because one of the dependencies for python-ldap on centos7 is openldap-devel. If you install that dependency manually it fixes this problem with the python-ldap error.

Fixed with yum install openldap-devel then pip install python-ldap although you can also just re-run the setup.
