× 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.

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.

i tried using a virtual machine but it still did not work
Hello 😀 Did you try these steps at a command prompt:
Set up a virtual environment with python3 -m venv --system-site-packages $HOME/.virtualenvs/pimoroni
It might take a moment with a zero.
Then switch to the virtual environment with source ~/.virtualenvs/pimoroni/bin/activate
Then try the curl https://get.pimoroni.com/inky | bash again.
If you add the line source ~/.virtualenvs/pimoroni/bin/activate to your users /home/pi/.bashrc file it will activate the python virtual environment on start up.
