  Hi all

  I am facing problem in installing OLED. Here is one of the example:

  amps_pi5@raspberrypi:~/oled $ sudo pip3 install --upgrade setuptools
  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.

      For more information visit http://rptl.io/venv

  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.

  What should I do?

  Here is my pi OS version.

  PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)"
  NAME="Debian GNU/Linux"
  VERSION_ID="12"
  VERSION="12 (bookworm)"
  VERSION_CODENAME=bookworm
  ID=debian

  Is the OLED displaying normally? If it is, you can ignore the hint.
