How to install pandas 0.24 on a Unix server (Solaris x86) that doesn't reach the internet?

I am trying to install some python packages, for example pandas, on a remote Unix server (Solaris x86) that does not reach the internet. Server runs python 2.7. I can copy files through winSCP tho. I have done a bit of research and found out I can download the .whl files on my windows machine and move it on the Unix server, then pip install it. I found two wheel files in the pandas website, I wasn't sure which one is compatible with the machine, so I tried both, and was faced with this error error

Is there another wheel file I should've downloaded? Or is there another way or a workaround to get pandas 0.24 installed on this machine?

Thank you!

You can download the source code here. Once unzipped, the package can be built from source with the flag -e.

Here is an example script for Unix/Powershell

wget https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/archive/refs/tags/v0.24.2.zip
unzip v0.24.2.zip
python -m pip install -e pandas-0.24.2/

For the last command (python -m pip install -e ...) you would have to check the requirements for v 0.24.2: on my machine it doesn't work maybe due to Python 3.9, maybe due to the virtualization (see here).

You might have to install a specific version of cython for it to work - I'm not sure.
