Python Solutions
Solution 1 - Python
libmemcached may also be installed using Homebrew.
brew install libmemcached
After that, pip install pylibmc worked for me without needing to specify any additional arguments.
Solution 2 - Python
It's in the libmemcached package. To install it using macports:
sudo port install libmemcached
Then, assuming you're using pip:
pip install pylibmc --install-option="--with-libmemcached=/opt/local"
or
LIBMEMCACHED=/opt/local pip install pylibmc
as explained in the pylibmc docs.
Solution 3 - Python
I solved this issue by checking where memcached is installed
$ which memcached
/usr/local/bin/memcached
and then setting LIBMEMCACHED environment variable before pip install:
$ export LIBMEMCACHED=/usr/local
$ pip install pylibmc

Answer for Ubuntu users:
sudo apt install libmemcached-dev zlib1g-dev
Solution 5 - Python
I have the same problem because i have installed MEMCACHED and not LIBMEMCACHED, so, to resolve:
brew uninstall memcached #to remove wrong package
brew install libmemcached #install correct lib
pip install pylibmc
Its Works for me!

For those finding this answer on Fedora:
sudo yum install libmemcached-devel
Solution 7 - Python
i fixed this by installing memcached from port
you should install first macports from http://www.macports.org/
then run this command
sudo port install memcached
after that download the pylibmc from the pypi http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pylibmc extract .tar.gz file then
python setup.py install --with-libmemcached=/opt/local
Solution 8 - Python
this code is worked for me
sudo apt-get install libmemcached-dev zlib1g-dev
LIBMEMCACHED=/opt/local pip install pylibmc
Solution 9 - Python
Hit the same error with macOS High Sierra, Python3.6 installed with brew. Solution for me was to export these flags, mentioned in this comment: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14803310/error-when-install-pylibmc-using-pip/33663121#comment62898499_19432949
export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include"
After that, pip install run just fine.

Sometimes the X-Code Command Line Tools need to be installed.
xcode-select -p
