Error: This environment is externally managed

[stepanprokop]

Hi, I've got into troubles during installation? Raspberry 5, everything's updated. HA running, previous instruction followed...

sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt
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.

Ignore pip for now, everything can be installed with apt in Bookworm that is needed for this. This script now needs to be setup in a virtual environment (venv), not a Pi5 thing but a Debian bookworm thing. Or if you don't mind there is a file you can remove to get back old behaviour.
