Running Trac 1.6 on a Windows 11 machine. Trac runs without any issues.=20
I've installed several plugins without any issues.=20

Yes, I know, Windows, it is the environment I'm forced to use.

However when I try to install the CustomFieldAdminPlugin using the command:
    pip install svn+https://trac-hacks.org/svn/customfieldadminplugin/1.2

I get the following errors:

Can't figure out why this plugin installation is failing when all the other=

Thanks,
