+### Install gcloud using the archive file
+
+If you cannot use the package manager or you get a Python version error such as the one below you can use the archive file.
+
+```output
+The following packages have unmet dependencies:
+ google-cloud-cli : Depends: python3 (< 3.12) but 3.12.3-0ubuntu2 is to be installed
+```
+
+Download the archive file and extract the contents:
+
+```bash { target="ubuntu:latest" }
+wget https://dl.google.com/dl/cloudsdk/channels/rapid/downloads/google-cloud-cli-linux-arm.tar.gz
+sudo tar -xzf google-cloud-cli-linux-arm.tar.gz -C /opt
+```
+
+Run the installer:
+
+```bash { target="ubuntu:latest" }
+cd /opt/google-cloud-sdk
+sudo ./install.sh -q
+```
+

+You can change the installation directory from `/opt` to a location of your choice.

+Add the installation directory to your search path. The installer will print the path to a script you can source to add `gcloud` to your search path.
+
+```output
+==> Source [/opt/google-cloud-sdk/completion.bash.inc] in your profile to enable shell command completion for gcloud.
+==> Source [/opt/google-cloud-sdk/path.bash.inc] in your profile to add the Google Cloud SDK command line tools to your $PATH.

+
+Source the file to include `gcloud` in your search path:
+
+```bash { target="ubuntu:latest" }
+source /opt/google-cloud-sdk/path.bash.inc
+```
+
+Alternatively, you can add the `bin` directory to your path by adding the line below to your `$HOME/.bashrc` file.
+
+```console
+export PATH="/opt/google-cloud-sdk/bin:$PATH"
