python get-pip.py

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.

As the message notes:

If you believe this is a mistake, please contact your Python installation or OS distribution provider.

That is not us.

See /usr/share/doc/python3.11/README.venv for more information.

Consider reading this document for more details.

Assuming you're on Debian/Ubuntu, you likely want to apt install python3-venv. See also https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/tutorials/installing-packages/#creating-virtual-environments
