git clone github.com/Peter-van-Tol/LiteX-CNC.git
cd LiteX-CNC
git checkout 11-add-external-extensions-to-litexcnc
pip3 install ./ litexcnc[cli]

It is discussed here:
github.com/Peter-van-Tol/LiteX-CNC/issues/15

This the method I use.

Please note take note of the info on this page  for installing\building the driver

I have uninstalled sudo pip3 install -- extra index url test.pypi.org/simple/ For installations like litexcnc [cli]=0.9.0a5, error messages may still pop up

Replacing it with the debian10 litexcnc branch can install it. It was just installed under debian11 and keeps making mistakes,
There was an error installing lite. I used to install lite in the OPT directory and have also compiled firmware. Now, when I switch to the lite CNC of this branch, there is a lite installation error

Try:
Code:
pip3 install . litexcnc[cli] litexcnc install_litex --user litexcnc install_toolchain --user

I keep to the 11-add-external-extensions-to-litexcnc branch as you don't need to give a path to a config file when loading the driver. This is the branch I've been helping Peter on for installing the driver.

I usually use Bookworm book did notice with an earlier Debian version I had to upgrade pip (or pip3) and setup tools. BTW with Linuxcnc 2.9, if you have done a recent checkout or pull, you no longer need to give a path to the modules directory.
