05/27/2022, 3:48 AMQ. In a monorep, can I let the package "A" depend on the package "B" while "A" is targeted for Python 3.10.x and "B" for Python 3.8.x, because "A" runs on a host and "B" runs inside containers (mounted by "A" when "A" creates containers) but they need to be distributed together?

05/27/2022, 3:49 AMSince there is no direct code-level dependencies between them, lockfiles could be split. I've done it with a overriding of interpreter constraints, but pants tries to find an interpreter for "CPython<3.11,==3.8.*,>=3.10" ...

05/27/2022, 3:53 AMA way to resolve this issue is to upgrade the "B" to run on Python 3.10.x, but it requires some bit of extra work to regenerate prebuilt CPython env. I am just curious about how this kind of dependencies could be specified in pants.

05/27/2022, 5:43 PMWhy would A need to depend on B in this scenario? It sounds like they don't have code-level dependencies, and run independently. When you say "distributed together" you mean, in a pex or a wheel?

05/28/2022, 6:17 AMi'm inclining to just unify the interpreter constraints for now, because the packages executed inside containers are not installed in container but mounted from outside.
