Sparkfun-qwiic install on RP5

Qwiic System
1

I get an error message when I try to install the Sparkfun-qwiic on Raspberry Pi 5.

It says “Error: externally-managed-environment” and tells me to use “apt install python3-xyz” where “xyz” is the package.

it then can’t find “sparkfun-qwiic”

Is there an easy way to install this package for the qwiic pHat?

And suggestions?

It could be a few things (my guess is a typo or if apt doesn’t have our pkg in the repo like pip does?)

You could do one of these https://www.makeuseof.com/fix-pip-error … ent-linux/ as a workaround :slight_smile:
