If you are using a Sqlite database, you should have no problems with
the default install of weewx 5.2, which does not require a venv.
However, I had been thinking about switching to using Mariadb (~=
MySQL) on a local networked server and found that this required (at
least on my Pi running the Trixie version of Raspios) that an
additional library (pyMySQL, I think) be pip installed. The strong
recommendation, if you are going to do this, is to use a venv and
install the additional library in the venv. For now, I have used the
deprecated pip flag to add the additional library to the base system,
and everything seems to work, but anyone who uses a MySQL database
with weewx and plans to upgrade needs to know this.

thanks Vince,
this a new installation on a RPi with a Hat BC Robotics.
And I installed also Trixies.
I'll do as usual; I haven't mastered Venv yet.

See
https://www.weewx.com/docs/5.2/usersguide/installing/#installation-methods
for the various methods. If you have 5.1 installed and are
using the debian installation, you can easily upgrade to 5.2 if
you wish. See
https://www.weewx.com/docs/5.2/quickstarts/debian/#upgrade for
how to do that.
