09/23/2022, 7:03 PMHey pants team, is there a way to investigate what is pulling in a specific wheel file? I have an odd issue I can't seem to track down where a pex I have build (using pants 1.30 and pants 2.13) references a completely different version of a 3rd party module than I have referenced in the BUILD file.

09/23/2022, 7:19 PMHello! One idea is to inspect the sandbox in 2.13: https://www.pantsbuild.org/docs/troubleshooting#debug-tip-inspect-the-sandbox-with---keep-sandboxes
Another idea is if you are using lockfiles? That should pin down the exact artifcats (sdists and wheels) that will be used

unzip requirements.pex.depsb

09/23/2022, 8:10 PMThe python code is trying to use something different from the lockfile and build file. I haven't had a chance to unpack the pex just yet, will try that momentarily

09/23/2022, 8:28 PMI unpacked the zip, and the correct version of the package with issues is installed. So that aligns with the build file and lock file.

09/23/2022, 8:52 PMI think I found a solution, I didn't realize that pants 2.13 would place the pex in an entirely different spot than I had expected, once I unpacked the newly build pex I saw that the proper versions were installed. When I looked at what pants 1.30 had built, it contained the wrong version. I'm going forward with rebuilding my docker file and testing the new pex out
