Public bug reported:
Leveraging `PIP_BREAK_SYSTEM_PACKAGES`, I expect to be able to install
the latest version of wheel.
```
docker run --rm -it ubuntu:noble bash -c 'apt update;
DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt install -y python3-pip;
PIP_BREAK_SYSTEM_PACKAGES=1 pip install -U wheel'
```
Instead this errors with:
```
Requirement already satisfied: wheel in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages (0.42.0)
