Since this gets a lot of traffic, added a bit more detail.

Oct 22, 2012 at 22:03 comment added Mark Hildreth Best bet: search google for the header file that is missing, hope someone else is having the same problem. Also, yes, python-dev only gets you headers for the standard library. libxml2-dev has nothing to do with python: libxml2 is a C library that you just happen to be using a python library to work with. That is why it wasn't installed when you installed python-dev. Otherwise, you would basically need to install every C library in existence in the world to make sure you have all the headers that you would need to make every python library (such as lxml) works without additional steps
Oct 22, 2012 at 21:53 comment added Brian Dant Successfully installed lxml Thank you! I'm curious if you know of a place that maps the necessary headers to various (popular) Python packages. I've had problems with other also. Also, does the apt-get python-dev only get headers for the standard library?
