Root Cause

A typo in requirements.txt uses `=>` instead of `>=` or `==`. pip's requirement parser rejects the malformed version specifier.

generic

中文

requirements.txt 中的拼写错误使用了 `=>` 而不是 `>=` 或 `==`。pip 的需求解析器拒绝了这个格式错误的版本说明符。

Workarounds

  1. 95% success 
    Fix the operator in requirements.txt:
sed -i 's/=>/>=/g' requirements.txt
pip install -r requirements.txt
  2. 85% success 
    Validate requirements before install:
python -m pip install --dry-run -r requirements.txt

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. 90% fail

    The parse error occurs before dependency resolution; --no-deps does not bypass parsing.

  2. 90% fail

    Upgrade flag does not change parsing; the same line fails.
