Re: Strategies for avoiding having to use --break-system-packages with pip

Hello Chris,
I do have similar "problems" and still try to get used to the "new way".
Other might correct me. I am not sure yet.
To my current understanding the way to go is to install Python applications via "pipx". That make the application available in your system but also isolate it in its own virtual environment. Of course you should prefer to install applications from your GNU/Linux distros official repository if available.
If you install a Python package (library, not an application) you should create your own Python environment via venv for example. Pipx is not intended to install Python packages that are not applications.
Regrads,
