Package Manager Errors on Raspberry Pico W

[Dean Harry Smith]

Hi,

Just got my first Pico, I can connect just fine to the Pico and run simple stuff and now trying to add my first micropython package which is for my Pimoroni BME280 but I keep getting errors, Any help please would be great.

I am using Thonny 4.1.4 with it set to MicroPython (Raspberry Pi Pico) USB Serial Device @ COM3

install --progress-bar off micropython-bme280==2.1.3
