I'm trying to get my enviro+ set up but the install.sh keeps giving an error that my enviro externally-managed-environment

I tried setting up a virtual environment and then running the install.sh but i get the same error message

Did something not paste properly into the comment as it seems like something is missing?

This is happening because of changes to Raspberry Pi OS, I'm in the process of fixing our code but... there's quite a lot of it. In particular I am trying to focus on Enviro right now, so expect things to start working... soooon.

The what and why of this chaos is explained somewhat here: pimoroni/boilerplate-python#13

Progress on the fixes is detailed here: #126

Just got my Enviro+ and it immediately fails to work cos the instructions are wrong (unamused)

A little digging and a hacky solution is

pip install enviroplus --break-system-packages

Now examples work

The installation instructions on Github (and on Learn) should now be up to date (and hopefully more helpful with regards to virtual environments). Sorry that things have been a little chaotic for the last few months!

Closing this one for now, but let us know if you're still having issues.
