I was able to get it to install in a virtualenv on xenial after some effort.

$ python --version
Python 2.7.12

$ virtualenv -p `which python` venv
Running virtualenv with interpreter /usr/bin/python
New python executable in /home/artburkart/Code/venv/bin/python
Installing setuptools, pip, wheel...done.

$ . venv/bin/activate

(venv) $ sudo apt install python-xlib python-tk
(venv) $ pip install Image
(venv) $ pip install python-xlib
(venv) $ pip install Image
(venv) $ pip install pyautogui

Only after installing these extra dependencies, could I get it to work.

You need pay attention about the Python you are installing and run: Python 2.x or Python 3.x. I guess your Ubuntu have Python 2.X and Python 3.X. If you want use pyautogui on Python 3.X install pillow and pyautogui using pip3.

$ pip3 install pillow $ pip3 install pyautogui
