I am trying to install something for a project I'm working on and I get this error. I have gotten this error when trying to install "esptool" and searched for a couple hours to solve the issue. It worked in a "virtual environment" but would not work in VSCodium. I am working in Linux parrot 6.1.0-1parrot1-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Parrot 6.1.15-1parrot1 (2023-04-25) x86_64 GNU/Linux. And I am using Python 3.9.2.
I'm not the most fluent in Linux but I'm trying to learn as I go. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is my first question on stackoverflow so if my formatting is wrong I apologize. I'm sure I'm forgetting details so please ask for more info and I will try to provide it.

I am reading directions from an online tutorial and following them line by line so when I get to an issue like this I generally look the issue up and try to figure out what to do. This issue seems pretty complex and has me stumped.
