Using Python 3.10.6 on new Ubuntu VPS. Can't pip install dotenv, bs4 etc.
pip 22.3.1 version used.
Why is this error showing, how do I fix this? I looked at other questions, but couldn't solve my problem. I tried having a lower pip version, didn't work. I even reinstalled python3.10.
Thanks. (below error log - some emitted, all related)
