Same problem, any solution?

Same problem, any solution?

Only solution I see is, to annoy the main contributors of pycurl until they push windows builts for 3.9 and 3.10 🤔

Go here https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pycurl down load the currect pycurl based on your python version and then do pip install path/to/pycurl.x.x.x.x.whl replace the final bit with the correct path to the wheel you downloaded or you can also replace it with the url to the wheel and pip will download it for you.
