When I attempt install instruction: pip install -r requirements.txt

I get:
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.
hint: See PEP 668 for the detailed specification.

Attempting to apt install requirements.txt or sudo apt gives the error:

apt install requirements.txt
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package requirements.txt
E: Couldn't find any package by glob 'requirements.txt'

Please add a version where its all complete and in a folder and we can just download that and it works!
