"pip install pyfst" does not work under Cygwin

[pisabell]

Hello, I have openfst and python working fine under Cygwin. But when I try "pip install pyfst", I get an error message as shown below.

Any guidance on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

pyfst was never tested under Cygwin :-(
Try finding the install path of openfst (/usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib in linux) and add it manually to setup.py:
INC, LIB = ['/usr/local/include'], ['/usr/local/lib']
