fbprophet install failed

Hi. I am working under AWS sagemaker Python3 kernel. When I tried to install fbprophet, I had such errors:

  Building wheel for fbprophet (setup.py) ... error

Hope someone can give me some clues. Thanks.

After spending hours scouring the internet for answers to this question and similar questions like “ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1: when installing “Facebook” “prophet”” what worked for me was quite simply using a sudo pip install at the terminal prompt:

$ sudo pip install pystan==2.19.1.1 prophet

After install using prophet instead of fbprophet:

from prophet import Prophet

The specific set of packages depends on the distro, but see the Linux section in https://facebook.github.io/prophet/docs/installation.html#python for some ideas.
