Jetson Nano Developer Kit

I am trying to make a facial recognition system using the Jetson Nano developer kit, I set up my Micro SD card following the Nvidia website and then updated the APT. I created the swapfile to install NUMPY but when I run ‘pip3 install numpy’ it gives me the following error, and i am not sure how to fix it.

pip3 install numpy

setup.py clean is not supported, use one of the following instead:

- `git clean -xdf` (cleans all files)
- `git clean -Xdf` (cleans all versioned files, doesn't touch
                    files that aren't checked into the git repo)

Add --force to your command to use it anyway if you must (unsupported).

Note: if you need reliable uninstall behavior, then install
with pip instead of using `setup.py install`:

  - `pip install .`       (from a git repo or downloaded source
                           release)
  - `pip install numpy`   (last NumPy release on PyPi)

Moving to Jetson Nano forum for resolution.

Hi,

The error occurs from a missing library.
Please run the below installation command for cython first:

$ pip3 install cython

Thanks.
