Getting 'pip install error: externally-managed-environment' – How to Fix This Issue?

Oh man, the pip install error: externally-managed-environment is such a headache. I ran into it on Fedora.

I ended up using `pip install --user` as a quick fix, but honestly, it’s not the best solution. Virtual environments are way better for keeping things clean.

If you’re on Linux, you might also want to check out your distro’s package manager for Python packages. Sometimes they have what you need without needing pip.
