BME680 error

Ah this is because pip is fantastically brilliant at totally breaking itself. I don’t know how it gets into this state, but when I last had this issue I fixed it with:

sudo apt purge python3-pip
sudo easy_install3 pip

I think it’s related to the fact the Pi still ships with an antique version of pip, and if a newer package version of anything that pip depends on gets installed it’ll just break as demonstrated.
