File not found error when pip installing python-lzo on Kali 2020.1

running install threw the error :

**> No such file or directory

 35 | #include <lzo/lzo1x.h
    |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~**

After installing liblzo2-dev this issue was fixed:
apt install liblzo2-dev

On review, this isn't really a bug in the package. There is no standard way to make pip installing a package install apt dependencies, and the install directions in the README for ubuntu did specify running that apt command. I'm closing this. If someone can point me to documentation for a better way to do it, feel free to open a new issues.
