Installation py-pde issues

I am trying to install the python package py-pde.
My current python version is 3.9.
I pip install using the command 'pip install py-pde' on the terminal.
However, when I try to install it on my IDE - PyCharm - I get this error:

Any ideas what's wrong here?
Specifically, it says can't install on Python 3.11, even though I checked my python version using pip --version to be 3.9.
Not sure what's wrong. Help appreciated.

Should be as simple as alt+ctrl+s to go to settings.
Then navigate to Project: "Your project" >> Python Interpreter. Then just browse to the interpreter you want to use instead of 3.11.
Edit: Here's a link to JetBrains (PyCharm parent company) documentation that covers changing your interpreter.

I am developing an app using Django 4 and have set up a virtual environment using venv. The problem is that I cannot get the MySQL client package installed using pip to allow my Django app to connect to an existing MariaDB hosted on the same server.
I am using Fedora 37, Python 3.11.1 .
Every time I try to install mysqlclient via pip within my virtual environment I the below error:

Why does an error pop up when installing the "librosa" library in the PyCharm development environment: "subprocess-exited-with-error"?

Here is the error itself. To install, I use the command "pip install librosa", Python version 3.11.0

I tried to install not in Pycharm and changed the version of Python, I did not find anything on the Internet about this error, everywhere they suggest installing via "conda". Is there another way?

metadata-generation-failed occurs whenever I try to install pygame. I updated pip to the latest version and I'm using python 3.11 and I also tried python 3.10.15 both same results. Please answer in MacOS terminal form as I'm using a Mac, thanks!

Never had any problems installing packages using pip before. The file subprocess.py IS in \Thonny\lib\ if this WinError 2 means that.
I'm using:
Python 3.7.7
pip 22.0.3
Tk 8.6.9
Thonny 3.2.7
Windows 10
So far i've tried:
to update my pip and setuptools (they're already up-to-date)
to install TkFontAwesome using ez_setup
to install TkFontAwesome using --use-deprecated=backtrack-on-build-failures
No use. Anyone have any ideas what to do next? Thanks in advance.

Try add this after your pip3 install package:
--use-deprecated=backtrack-on-build-failures
eg, if you want:
pip3 install imageAI
then:
pip3 install imageAI --use-deprecated=backtrack-on-build-failures
copy from there.
