Root Cause

Dependency version constraints are mutually exclusive across installed packages.

generic

Workarounds

  1. 78% success Use pip-compile from pip-tools to find a compatible resolution 
    pip-compile requirements.in

    Sources: https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/topics/dependency-resolution/

  2. 75% success Create a fresh virtual environment and install from scratch 
    python -m venv .venv --clear && pip install -r requirements.txt

    Sources: https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. Use --force-reinstall 70% fail

    Forces installation but doesn't resolve the underlying conflict

  2. Pin all packages to exact versions from a working machine 65% fail

    Breaks on different platforms or Python versions
