I've just run through those instructions here and it works for me.

What directory are you in, the one that you are running that command
from? Does it contain the file weewx-previmeteo-v0.1.tar.gz ?

wee_extension is running okay, it just complains about a read error
for the target file - "file could not be opened successfully". Meaning
it can't read (or find) the file that you've specified (which is your
current directory).

Give the full path to that file... eg:-
/where/it/was/stored/weewx-previmeteo-v0.1.tar.gz

There is an odd chance that the downloaded file is corrupt, but my
first instinct is that it literally can't find the file with the
instruction you gave it.
