使用pip安装igraph时

sudo pip install python-igraph

发生如下错误信息：

Building igraph...
    make  all-recursive
    make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/pip-build-a4u1iH/python-igraph/vendor/build/igraph'
    Making all in src
    make[2]: Entering directory '/tmp/pip-build-a4u1iH/python-igraph/vendor/build/igraph/src'
      YACC     foreign-ncol-parser.c
    ../../../source/igraph/ylwrap: line 176: yacc: command not found

    Makefile:404: recipe for target 'all' failed
    make: *** [all] Error 2
    Could not compile the C core of igraph.

按照提示判断为yacc未安装。

按照百度到的信息：yacc(Yet Another Compiler Compiler)，是一个经典的生成语法分析器的工具。yacc生成的编译器主要是用C语言写成的语法解析器（Parser），需要与词法解析器Lex一起使用，再把两部份产生出来的C程序一并编译。

安装yacc：

sudo apt-get install -y byacc

安装成功后再安装igraph：

sudo pip install python-igraph

出现错误：

Building igraph...
    make  all-recursive
    make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/pip-build-8_t2M7/python-igraph/vendor/build/igraph'
    Making all in src
    make[2]: Entering directory '/tmp/pip-build-8_t2M7/python-igraph/vendor/build/igraph/src'
      YACC     foreign-ncol-parser.c

    ^

    make: *** [all] Error 2
    Could not compile the C core of igraph.

出错位置为：

 byacc: e - line 74 of "/tmp/pip-build-8_t2M7/python-igraph/vendor/build/igraph/src/../../../source/igraph/src/foreign-ncol-parser.y", syntax error
    %output="y.tab.c"
    ^

错误形式为：“syntax error”，猜想可能为pip版本太老。尝试更新pip版本：

sudo python -m pip install --upgrade --force pip

安装成功后返回信息，可见从pip 9升级到了pip 20：

Installing collected packages: pip
  Found existing installation: pip 9.0.1
    Not uninstalling pip at /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages, outside environment /usr
Successfully installed pip-20.3.1

更新pip成功后再安装：

sudo pip install python-igraph

出现

Requirement already satisfied: texttable>=1.6.2 in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (from python-igraph) (1.6.3)
Installing collected packages: python-igraph
Successfully installed python-igraph-0.8.3

至此，安装igraph成功，问题解决。
