pip install pygraphviz: No package 'libcgraph' found

I succeed in installing graphviz and cgraph with

$ sudo pip install graphviz
....
Successfully installed graphviz-0.5.1

$ sudo pip install cgraph
...
Successfully installed cgraph-0.1

I encounter the issue No package 'libcgraph' found while running sudo pip install pygraphviz. Below is the full stacktrace.

$ sudo pip install pygraphviz

I ran into this problem when creating a Dockerfile for Django with a python-alpine image.

I was able to solve it thanks to this post adding the package "graphviz-dev" along with the rest of my app's dependencies.

Example:

#Install dependencies
RUN apk add --update --no-cache --virtual .build-deps \
    build-base \
    alpine-sdk \
    postgresql-dev \
    libffi-dev \
    python3-dev \
    libffi-dev \
    jpeg-dev \
    zlib-dev \
    musl-dev \
    libpq \
    graphviz-dev \  
    && pip install --no-cache-dir -r /code/requirements_dev.txt \
    && find /usr/local \
        \( -type d -a -name test -o -name tests \) \
        -o \( -type f -a -name '*.pyc' -o -name '*.pyo' \) \
        -exec rm -rf '{}' +

sudo apt-get install python-dev graphviz libgraphviz-dev pkg-config

or the following might be needed if you're using Python 3:

sudo apt-get install python3-dev graphviz libgraphviz-dev pkg-config

then

pip install pygraphviz

For CentOS. As graphviz-devel is required to fix this issue, you will need to install it with yum. To do this you are required to add repo's where package is available. In my case Atomic repos worked fine.

wget -q -O - http://www.atomicorp.com/installers/atomic | sh

This will add atomic repos, then

sudo yum install graphviz-devel

And you should be able to perform 

pip install pygraphviz

For fedora users:

  1. yum list available graphviz*
  2. select the appropriate package for your Fedora distribution
  3. sudo yum install 'graphviz-devel.x86_64'
  4. pip install pygraphviz
