Hello, can anyone help?  All assistance gratefully received.  I am running python 3.13.3 on a Windows 11 machine and trying to do
    pip install matplotlib
(No, I don't need to say "python -m ...", I am running the right version of python.exe.) This starts by generating the following output (which I can catch by redirecting it to a file)

Collecting matplotlib
  Using cached matplotlib-3.10.6.tar.gz (34.8 MB)
  Installing build dependencies: started
  Installing build dependencies: finished with status 'done'

  Installing backend dependencies: started
  Installing backend dependencies: finished with status 'done'
  Preparing metadata (pyproject.toml): started
  Preparing metadata (pyproject.toml): finished with status 'error'

then prints error messages on the screen which are scrolled out too fast to see, but end as follows:
