~$ pip3 install twtxt
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/python3.12/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.
Using pip install --user give same error. PEP668 breaks typical scenario of installing python apps:)
My workaround is to python3 -m venv twtxt anywhere for twtxt, activate it, make pip install twtxt within venv, then cd ~/.local/bin and ln -s /path/to/venv/bin/twtxt. In this case twtxt installed locally for user and works (except #194 bug)
