Python 3 not installing on RPi5 not allowing MQTT remote monitoring to HAOS

Good day,
I’m running nextcloudpi on a Pi5:

Operating System: Linux 6.6.63-current-bcm2712 aarch64
CPU: Raspberry Pi 5 Model B Rev 1.0 (4 threads)

I just upgraded from a Pi4 and I had this running perfectly (installed via the ironsheep script) and was reporting straight to my HOAS perfectly as well. Along with all the other parameters, the CPU T was showing too which is important for me.

I’ve tried running through the various install methods but it always fails at the “python 3 venv” stage which ever method I try.

I added a comment to the issues on the Iron sheep GIT where there is a work around for a Pi5:

And they suggested it’s a nextcloud issue as it works on RPi5s running RaspberrypiOS.

Here’s the output from the CLI:

howie@nextcloudpi:~$ sudo apt install python3.11-venv

You might want to run ‘apt --fix-broken install’ to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libraspberrypi0 : Depends: raspberrypi-bootloader but it is not installable or
raspi-firmware but it is not going to be installed
python3.11-venv : Depends: python3-pip-whl (>= 22.2) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: python3-setuptools-whl but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try ‘apt --fix-broken install’ with no packages (or specify a solution).

any ideas ??

regards
Howie

Maybe you find a workaround here:
No updates and installations possible #2047

Thank you very much indeed - that worked to allow the code to be run. Other Problems now though that are to do with their code.
