Hey groenhart,

sorry to hear that. What's a little bit surprising is that "Cloning into ..." line comes after the "sudo python3 setup.py" command. I'd expect "Cloning into" to show up after the initial "git clone ..." command.

Also, the error "This environment is externally managed. To install packages system-wide ..." shows up after running "sudo python3 setup.py" but in this step no packages are installed.

Can you maybe try to delete the "BierBot-Bricks-RaspberryPi" folder again and try running each command individually instead of all at once?

Cheers,
Bernhard.

Another suggestion, if the "This environment is externally managed. To install packages system-wide ..." error persists, try running

"sudo mv /usr/lib/python3.11/EXTERNALLY-MANAGED /usr/lib/python3.11/EXTERNALLY-MANAGED.old" - be sure to adjust the "3.11" to your python version (you can get it by running "python3 --version").

BEFORE doing the pip install
