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.

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
Thank you Pete.
Great to hear. 🙏🏻👍🏻
