I get this error while installing some packages with pip3 inside an environment

using centOS 7 with python 3.7.2 as parallel install.
step to reproduce: (dependancies are installed)

rm -rf /usr/local/lib/python3.7
cd /root/
wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.7.2/Python-3.7.2.tgz
tar -xzf Python-3.7.2.tgz
cd Python-3.7.2
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-shared --enable-optimizations LDFLAGS="-Wl,-rpath /usr/local/lib"
make
make altinstall

adduser a-user

su - a-user
/usr/local/lib/python3.7 -m venv user-envn
source user-envn/bin/activate

pi3 install --upgrade pip
pip install pyusb==1.0.0

result with error:

configure and make run as root might cause this. See also issue15317 that is a similar report for source install.

is there any better way to configure other than as root? because this python3.7 may be used by other user too

in a more strict environment,  compile it other than root (sudo) may not be allowed also.

using a user  may have permission issue as well right?  i am not sure here
