How can i install pygobject from my distribution package. And install all the required headers for cairo and probably GTK

when i run the command i have this error message
$gnuhealth@ghealth:~ $ pip3 install --user --upgrade gnuhealth-client

Package cairo-gobject was not found in the pkg-config search path.

 Perhaps you should add the directory containing `cairo-gobject.pc'
  to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
  No package 'cairo-gobject' found
  Command '('pkg-config', '--print-errors', '--exists', 'cairo-gobject >= 0')' returned non-zero exit status 1.

  ERROR: Failed building wheel for PyGObject
Failed to build PyGObject
ERROR: Could not build wheels for PyGObject which use PEP 517 and cannot be installed directly

You need to follow the Getting Started with PyGObject instructions.

Are you using Ubuntu? You didn't say what your distribution is.

If so, to install PyGObject run:

sudo apt install python3-gi python3-gi-cairo gir1.2-gtk-3.0
