error: externally-managed-environment

× This environment is externally managed
╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try 'pacman -S python-xyz', where xyz is the package you are trying to install.

If you wish to install a non-Arch-packaged Python package, create a virtual environment using 'python -m venv path/to/venv'. Then use path/to/venv/bin/python and path/to/venv/bin/pip.

If you wish to install a non-Arch packaged Python application, it may be easiest to use 'pipx install xyz', which will manage a virtual environment for you. Make sure you have python-pipx installed via pacman.

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.

If you wish to install a non-Arch packaged Python application,
it may be easiest to use ‘pipx install xyz’, which will manage a
virtual environment for you. Make sure you have python-pipx
installed via pacman

and do as it says. Install pipx using

sudo pacman -S python-pipx

then use pipx to install python packages,

pipx install pyttsx3
