hi,
my environment:

centos 7, python 3.6.5. when install prophet from source, it failed and report error below:

error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

I had tried with command "sudo pip3 install prophet", it failed similarly:

I separately install other dependencies, such as pystan 2.19, success and it works well.

thanks.

after upgrade gcc version with below command on centos 7:
yum install centos-release-scl
yum-config-manager --enable rhel-server-rhscl-7-rpms
yum install devtoolset-7
scl enable devtoolset-7 bash

then it passed install fbprophet
sudo pip3 install fbprophet
