A13 python GPIO problem

[MMp131316]

Hello all,
i am trying to install the python GPIO package for olinuxino a13 however i receive an error.
My python version on the board is Python v 2.7 and the error sounds like this :

source/pyA13.c:23:20: fatal error: Python.h no such file or directory compilation terinated.
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

It doesn't find the python.h file ...
I have also tried with an earlier version pyA13-0.1.7 and there i get another error:
source/gpio_lib.c:39:22: fatal error: gpio_lib.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

I am installing it like this..
#tar -zxvf pyA13-0.1.7.tar.gz
#cd pyA13-0.1.7
#sudo python setup.py install

also i checked this site

You probably need python-dev package

If not that, try google with
"python.h"

I tried installing the python dev package however i get errors i tried also with version 2.6...

dpkg -i python-dev_2.7.3-0ubuntu7_armhf.deb
(Reading database ... 55882 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace python-dev 2.7.3-0ubuntu7 (using python-dev_2.7.3-0ubuntu7_armhf.deb) ...

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of python-dev:
python-dev depends on python (= 2.7.3-0ubuntu7); however:
  Version of python on system is 2.7.3~rc2-1.
python-dev depends on python2.7-dev (>= 2.7.3); however:
  Package python2.7-dev is not installed.
dpkg: error processing python-dev (--install):

I freed all my memoryand reinstalled a fresh os and now when i am extrating the python dev it just says
processing triggers for man-db ...
errors were encountered while processing: python-dev

it says nothing about the nature of the errors.....
What is it?

First of all thank you for the relpy! However i managed to solve the problem
The idea is that i used the images
A13 Debian 2GB card image without XFCE4 with GCC, GPIO, WIFI, WTHERNET, UVC, Python, OpenCV
r18 and r17
I installed and reinstalled some of the images because i thought at first that the were not correctly installed or something happened during instalation, but the result was the same

With all the above images i had problems installing the a13 gpio package for python...
On the ones that didn't have python i installed python first
In the end i installed this image
A13 Advanced Debian 4GB card image with XFCE4, GCC, GPIO, WIFI, WTHERNET, UVC, Python, OpenCV;
And with this one i was able to install the package and test it with the blink program - and it worked
