    [Installation] Please help me install this rgb software for Linux

    hello,

    Im trying to install an open source sollution to make NZXT Hue + rgb software working in Kubuntu, but im a bit lost with the installation process, Linux has never been simple for me, but I really want to learn.

    This is the source that contains the details of the software and how it should be installed (https://github.com/kusti8/hue-plus)

    I have tried it, but at the last part of the installation process , I had to put this code in the Terminal (sudo pip3 install hue_plus) However I am constantly getting this message;

    kojipro@kojipro-MS-7917:~$ sudo pip3 install hue_plus
    The directory '/home/kojipro/.cache/pip/http' or its parent directory is not owned by the current user and the cache has been disabled. Please check the permissions and owner of that directo
    ry. If executing pip with sudo, you may want sudo's -H flag.

    Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-vt4eqowx/pyqt5/

    Can someone please guide me through the installation process to install NZXT Hue+ software in kubuntu.

    Given the age of this application (last updated/modified 2 to 4 years ago), I'm doubtful that it would install correctly in a new version of Kubuntu.

    You must have python3-dev and portaudio19-dev installed!
    Are both of these available for installation in the version of Kubuntu you are running?
    Windows no longer obstructs my view.

      im not sure if its officially available, i dont even know hot to check that. But I did look around to install python3-dev and portaudio19-dev ;

      For Python3-dev installation I used this link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpQEs6tE1XU&t=121s

      For portaudio19-dev installation I used this file portaudio19-dev_19.6.0-1_amd64.deb
