PIP Install depracated in Ubuntu 23.04, package it as a DEB instead.

Trying to run "pip install nautilus-open-any-terminal" results in this:

error: externally-managed-environment

× This environment is externally managed
╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try apt install
    python3-xyz, where xyz is the package you are trying to
    install.

    If you wish to install a non-Debian-packaged Python package,
    create a virtual environment using python3 -m venv path/to/venv.
    Then use path/to/venv/bin/python and path/to/venv/bin/pip. Make
    sure you have python3-full installed.

    If you wish to install a non-Debian packaged Python application,
    it may be easiest to use pipx install xyz, which will manage a
    virtual environment for you. Make sure you have pipx installed.

    See /usr/share/doc/python3.11/README.venv for more information.

note: If you believe this is a mistake, please contact your Python installation or OS distribution provider. You can override this, at the risk of breaking your Python installation or OS, by passing --break-system-packages.
hint: See PEP 668 for the detailed specification.

I suppose this is related to Ubuntu, as this doesn't happen on neither Fedora nor Arch. Maybe packaging it as a .DEB would fix it

packaging could be done by myself, but it does not make much sense, because i am using NixOS. Therefore I will not check if the package is fine.

I am open for a PR. But keep in mind, that I will not test it.

maybe you try: https://github.com/Stunkymonkey/nautilus-open-any-terminal/blob/master/tools/update-extension-system.sh might fix your problem as well or run try pip install nautilus-open-any-terminal --user

I made a MPR package for this project. You can build it from source with makedeb or mist.

[Stunkymonkey]

@lvxnull should we have a CI job for this?

[lvxnull]

@Stunkymonkey sure, i wouldn't mind

The debian package has been included with the release for quite some time now. Closing.
