How to fix 'error: externally-managed-environment' when installing Python packages? or Getting 'error

error: externally-managed-environment is basically Ubuntu’s overprotective parent.

Quick fix: `sudo apt install python3-venv`, then make a venv.

Long fix? Switch to Arch. (Kidding… kinda.)

Seriously tho, don’t use --break-system-packages unless you enjoy fixing your OS.
