Installing Pandas on Termux throws error: Broken toolchain

I've installed Termux (running on Android if that matters) and python (2.7 due to personal preference), but am running into the following issue when installing pandas:

RuntimeError: Broken toolchain: cannot link a simple C program

The same error is thrown for numpy and has something to do with the Cythonic nature of these modules.

Because I wanted to use python 2.7, I'm also using pip2 to install, not sure if that has any bearing on this. And when I install python-dev, I actually use python2-dev.

A previous poster had this issue and it seems to have been fixed, but on Mac, the solution does not work for me.

Really, all I want to do is install python and pandas on Android, and I think Termux is the best solution, but I'm open to suggestion.

Use these commands it will install all libraries like NumPy, pandas, matplotlib, jupyter, SciPy, scikit-learn:

apt install git
git clone https://github.com/sanheensethi/Installing-ML-In-Termux-Python.git
cd Installing-ML-In-Termux-Python
chmod +x ml-install.sh
ml-install.sh

The issue more specifically is the error message around a simple c program. After installing clang, you'll be able to install pandas without the noted error. 

pkg install clang

I was facing errors while installing numpy initally which was required for pandas. The way I installed numpy was

pkg install clang
pkg install python-dev
pip install numpy

Did you apt install python-dev. I believe when I ran into this issue it was because I was not using the -dev version, using the -dev version solved many issues for me.

I took some notes for myself at https://github.com/WaylonWalker/Python_Setup_Termux
