title: Can't build wheel for pandas
body: <p>I am a beginner at coding and currently trying to run some code I found in a research paper (github here: <a href="https://github.com/jdechalendar/tracking_emissions" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/jdechalendar/tracking_emissions</a>). The code was written in a Linux environment so I downloaded Ubuntu for Windows and the first step is just running the setup.py file to download some packages like numpy and pandas. However, when the code comes to &quot;building wheel for pandas&quot;, it takes 25 mins to finish with the <strong>MASSIVE</strong> block of red error code but I've pasted the 2 big errors below. I don't understand why such a simple task is so difficult.</p>
  <p>I have tried looking for many solutions online and downloaded many packages like libssl and libblas and python3-dev, upgraded setuptools and wheel, made sure I have gcc, etc. The curious thing is that I can install pandas through &quot;apt-get&quot; without wheels but then when I run the code from the research paper, I get the error that &quot;no module named pandas&quot;.</p>
  <p>Any help is MUCH appreciated, been on this problem for days!!</p>
