Marlin EEPROM Editor python error

I have Octoprint installed on a laptop, Ubuntu 22.04, most plugins install with no problem, on previous install it worked fine, but when attempting to install the Marlin EEPROM editor on a fresh installation, I get this error:

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

Error!
Could not parse output from pip, see plugin_pluginmanager_console.log for generated output

Any ideas?

Apologies, the plugin is not yet compatible with Python 3.12. I really need to release that fix.
