I am installing package which cannot be compiled with Apple's gcc; at the same time homebrew gcc installs gcc-9 which also appears to be problematic in this case.
For this reason I had to install gcc using anaconda in the base environment. But that gcc cannot find the header files such as stdio.h. I am not sure if this problem occurred after upgrading to catalina or installing xcode (which I do not understand a bit). So I am receiving the error:
../include/common.h:3:19: fatal error: stdio.h: No such file or directory #include "stdio.h" ^compilation terminated.I know that this is a famous problem in mac. I am very new in mac os (frankly speaking I hate it). I tried a lot of solutions available on the web but could not solve the problem.

After doing
sudo ln -s /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/include/* /usr/local/include/I am getting the same error.
I can also find some header files at /Users/satadru/anaconda2/include/ but not stdio.h
Please help me out fixing this gcc issue.
