Command Line tools are giving a multitude of errors when trying to install MuJoCo. I suspect with high confidence that this is an issue from the command line tools on my macOS Catalina since I have installed mujoco previously on Mojave and multiple ubuntu machines.
First I perform:
xcode-select --install

ERROR: Failed building wheel for mujoco-py
Any suggestions as to why my command-line tools are failing on macOS Catalina? What steps should one take to ensure that the command-line tools and gcc on Catalina are working as expected?
A ticket was open on the MuJoCo-py project here.
Best Answer
It is not your command line tools which are failing. Quite obvious, this is a compiler error and it seems like the python library was developed against a different set of headers - the compiler merely states a mismatch.
So gcc is working as expected - the python library‘s C extension is outdated. I fear there is little you can do aside from what you presumably already have done, namely opening a ticket in the MuJoCo-py project.
P.S. It would be nice if you added the information that you already opened a ticket in your question. Even if you did so after you asked here, you can always edit your question.
