It said something like "the libraries are managed by your distribution
and you should use the package manager of your distribution instead, run
sudo apt install". I'm sure there are ways to force "pip install" to run
anyway, but I strongly believe it would be a bad idea because I have no
idea about the side effects.

sudo apt install python3-ruff

did work and it is in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/ruff.  It might have
been OpenSUSE 13.2 where you could force feed it.
