Getting error: [i] Installing WeatherFlow PiConsole Python modules... [✗] Updating Python package manager Error: Unable to update Python package manager: pip

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.

Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Hardware/OS/Version (please complete the following information):

• debian bookworm
• PI4

Thanks for the bug report. This is a known issue related to a change in how Python package managers work: https://peps.python.org/pep-0668/. I will update the installer to become compatible with this change
