Tangent: is it worthwhile to establish a consensus for best practices with package pinning and package management for Python projects in the Wikimedia ecosystem? When I last worked on a python project (https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Add_Link) I found it confusing that we have so many different tools and approaches for doing these things, and seems like we'd benefit from having a standard, supported way. (Or maybe that already exists and I haven't found it?)_______________________________________________KostaOn 5.

It also supports exporting dependencies into a requirements.txt file, should you need that (nice if you want to containerize an app without bloating the image with Poetry, for instance).

But I don’t know if that applies in your integration/config case.Am Do., 4. Mai 2023 um 18:08 Uhr schrieb Antoine Musso <hashar@free.fr>:_______________________________________________Hello,
This is for python projects.
Today, May 4th, urllib3 has released a new major version 2.0.2 which breaks the extremely popular requests library.
The fix is to pin urllib3<2 to prevent the new major version from being installed (example).
