Description

Describe the Bug

During execution qmk setup it's try to install to user some python packages via pip. But at least once that installing are ending with following error:

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.

... After that I get more error, but I don't know if these problems are related:

gcc  -O2 -Wall `libusb-config --cflags` -c main.c -o main.o
gcc  -O2 -Wall `libusb-config --cflags` -c usbcalls.c -o usbcalls.o

Ψ QMK is ready to go, but minor problems were found
