This error appears in the vale action log on our PRs. See PR3365. It started today or yesterday.

Run errata-ai/vale-action@reviewdog with: filter_mode: diff_context vale_flags: --no-exit --minAlertLevel=error reporter: github-pr-review fail_on_error: true files: guides/common/ version: latest debug: false level: error token: *** /usr/bin/pip install docutils 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/python3.12/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. Error: Error: The process '/usr/bin/pip' failed with exit code 1

Closing because it looks like this error was always present but was failing silently.
