this is only part of the error, it's too long to post

I can recommend to install Python-CURL binding with APT:

sudo apt install python-pycurl

If you really need to install it from pip, then you should install curl development package first (to have curl-config installed):

 sudo apt install libcurl4-gnutls-dev
