I wanted to install the astropy package using pip, on Termux, but every time I get an error saying subprocess-exited-with-error.

I reinstalled Termux from F-droid, as suggested from the internet. But the error persists. I tried to do pkg upgrade. I even tried to install it in venv but nothing works. What can I do?

Here is a larger part of the error log:
