What can I do about this?

[gene heskett]

Greatings all;

Persuant to my claim the py3.10 is busted, here is a sample. This is me, 
trying to make
pronterface, inside a venv: When the package manager version will only 
run the gui-less "pronsole"
but nothing else from that all python kit runs as it should or at all.
 From the package-managers install in /usr/share/doc/printrun-common/ I 
copied requirements.txt
into the venv, and ran this command line:

gene at rock64:~/venv$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt
Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not 
writeable
Ignoring pyobjc-framework-Cocoa: markers 'sys_platform == "darwin"' 
don't match your environment
Ignoring pyreadline: markers 'sys_platform == "win32"' don't match your 
environment
Requirement already satisfied: pyserial>=3.0 in 
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages (from -r requirements.txt (line 1)) (3.5)

   note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a 
problem with pip.

What do I need to do to fix this? It supposedly works on a rpi4b, but 
this is a rock64, V2,
older stuff with 4 gigs of dram.

Thank you for any help you can toss my way.

Cheers, Gene Heskett.
