For bookworm, Pyownet is definitely a pip install. I'm not sure if they ever had it as a Debian package, at least not for a couple of versions.
I have it installed here with weewx5, and previously with v4.x, but always as a pip install. My current installation of weewx is using the weewx-venv method so I don't get that management warning. I'm assuming you've installed the deb package of weewx to be getting that warning? While I'm no expert on python and venv's , I'd be surprised if forcing an install of pyownet via pip would actually break anything, It's one solitary package that shouldn't be pulling anything else in, nor should any other software be confused by it. So while it may be less than ideal, nothing should actually "break" While it might sound dire, doing a forced install shouldn't get you hung. The last line of that pip3 warning message tells you how to do that ... use --break-system-packages If you want to stay inside the white line then do the weewx installation via pip. It works very well. As for *one* place for info; have a look at the following link, it's got pretty much everything to get 1-wire working with a fork of Mathew Walls owfs. It's what I use. https://github.com/glennmckechnie/weewx-owfs And for sheepdog gear, I've had a humidity sensor working here. I'd be very surprised if it doesn't work with the owfs driver.
