`python::pip`'s 'latest' not compatible with latest 'pip' (version 20.3) due to changed output about puppet-python HOT 7 OPEN

I managed to reproduce the error in #591

from puppet-python.

Hi,
I put your code, and a few variations, into an acceptance test and that looks quite good at the moment: #588

from puppet-python.

There is a huge discussion on pypa/pip#9139 to bring functionality back, but for now, one can use

# /opt/python3/bin/pip install --use-deprecated=legacy-resolver agent== 
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement agent== (from versions: 0.1.0, 0.1.1, 0.1.2)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for agent==

notice that you don't have to add anything after ==

from puppet-python.

Hi, a resolution has since been proposed and merged to resolver pypa/pip#9139 by a contributor. Are there still things missing to resolve this?

from puppet-python.

I have the latest pip 21.0.1 and feature is not included there yet

from puppet-python.

Yes, the change will be the 21.1 release due this month. I was asking whether there are any more things you’d need, or maybe some people to test 21.1 against the current main branch to make sure it works for you, so we don’t need to wait for another feature release to get this resolved.

should be fixed in newer version? pypa/pip#9405

from puppet-python.
