Problem Description

I'm trying to on my M1 Mac and get the error below. Note that my pip was associated with python3.7, however, I was trying to work around that by using <sudo /usr/bin/pip3 install fprime-tools>.

Error Message

@hAkselS Is this log with sudo or not? Are you here trying to install fprime-tools globally, with the macOS' system-wide Python?
sudo pip install is highly unrecommended - I doubt you should need it. I'm a little confused at this error traceback - I would maybe advise to upgrade your Python/pip versions (Python 3.7 came to end-of-life June 2023 - pip 19.2.3 is pretty old too). Did you manage to install the package in the end?
