[Ubuntu 18.04] Failed building wheel

[RealistikDash]

Platform

• Ubuntu 18.04
• psutil 5.6.3
• Python 3.6.8

Bug description
Module fails to install. I tried possible solutions from previous issues (#1143) like installing python3.6-dev, python3-dev but these do not seem to fix the problem for me.

pip3 install psutil
