Description of issue

Getting this error when try to run pip or pip3:

` pip install open-webui ─╯

[notice] A new release of pip is available: 24.2 -> 24.3.1
[notice] To update, run: python3.13 -m pip install --upgrade pip
error: externally-managed-environment

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

If you wish to install a Python library that isn't in Homebrew,
use a virtual environment:

python3 -m venv path/to/venv
source path/to/venv/bin/activate
python3 -m pip install xyz

If you wish to install a Python application that isn't in Homebrew,
it may be easiest to use 'pipx install xyz', which will manage a
virtual environment for you. You can install pipx with

brew install pipx

You may restore the old behavior of pip by passing
the '--break-system-packages' flag to pip, or by adding
'break-system-packages = true' to your pip.conf file. The latter
will permanently disable this error.

If you disable this error, we STRONGLY recommend that you additionally
pass the '--user' flag to pip, or set 'user = true' in your pip.conf
file. Failure to do this can result in a broken Homebrew installation.

Read more about this behavior here: <https://peps.python.org/pep-0668/>

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.`

Since open-webui seems to be an Python application that's not in Homebrew, the following paragraph from your command output applies:

Error installing open-webui.`

[gromgit]

If I'm reading the error messages correctly, they all basically say that open-webui requires Python 3.11 (the official installation docs say the same thing), so I think you'll have to:

brew install python@3.11
pipx install --python 3.11 open-webui

(I'm actually not a Python user, so if you run into any further issues, someone else will have to help you.)

It worked. Thanks
