problem with python-snappy installation on a virtualenv

I tried to install python-snappy on a virtualenv with python 2.7. It failed

I tried to reinstall libsnappy-dev to correct it, but i have another problem
I tried to install cffi but there already is a problem:

```

Start by reproducing installation in the Python 2.7 virtualenv and inspect setup.py, snappy/snappymodule.cc, and snappy/crc32c.c alongside the reported header and compiler errors. Determine whether the failure is project packaging or environment-specific; done means the supported installation path succeeds or the required environment and limitation are documented.
