Installation issue - Linux

[lawmana]

I have been trying to install pyroms on Linux following the instructions in the README. I have gcc and gfortran compilers, and all of the prerequisites installed. When I try to install from source I receive the following error:

(pyleoenv) ccasadio@ccasadio-MS-7C35:~$ pip install -e pyroms/pyroms

Any help with this installation issue would be greatly appreciated.
