Answer 1

Fiona requires Python versions 3.6+ and GDAL version 1.11-3.0. To build from a source distribution you will need a C compiler and GDAL and Python development headers and libraries (libgdal1-dev for Debian/Ubuntu, gdal-dev for CentOS/Fedora).
To build from a repository copy, you will also need Cython to build C sources from the project's .pyx files. See the project's requirements-dev.txt file for guidance.
The Kyngchaos GDAL frameworks will satisfy the GDAL/OGR dependency for OS X, as will Homebrew's GDAL Formula (brew install gdal).

I think it's GDAL. Here you either need to install it separately, or if you are compiling all this yourself, then it looks like you need cython to build ... but do not want to install from wheel?

Answer 2

conda install fiona
