Python bug
When trying to install it in my Pika OS:
brito@AuroraBorealisWorkstation:~$ curl https://get.modular.com | MODULAR_AUTH=[redacted] sh - | distro=pika version=23.04 codename=lunar

brito@AuroraBorealisWorkstation:~$ modular install mojo
# Found release for https://packages.modular.com/mojo @ 0.2.1, installing to /home/brito/.modular/pkg/packages.modular.com_mojo
# Downloads complete, setting configs...
# Configs complete, running post-install hooks...
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/python3.11/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.
hint: See PEP 668 for the detailed specification.
