Error installing due to dependency on secp256k1

There seems to be an error in a package dependency that is making it difficult for me to use the nostr module.

Hey. I had the same problem on my Ubuntu and Debian box as well. Try the MAC equivalent of the procedure.

First I installed the devtools as the pip wants to compile the library.
sudo apt update
sudo apt install build-essential libssl-dev libffi-dev python3-dev

And then I was missing wheel module:
pip install wheel

I made an installation on my Debian, which may be related to the resolution of this issue:
sudo apt-get -y install pkg-config
