hi, just trying to update to

2.9.0

and im getting a dependency conflict with

docker-compose

over the pyyaml version i created a new venv to clarify the problem - and doing

pip install pantsbuild.pants==2.9.0 docker-compose

results in

ERROR: ResolutionImpossible: for help visit <https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/user_guide/#fixing-conflicting-dependencies>

how do you invoke pants? (i.e. why do you need pants in the same python env as docker-compose?)

i just install it in my venv, perhaps the problem stems from not using the

./pants

script

Ah, yes, using the

./pants

bootstrap script, you get a dedicated env for running pants, that doesn’t conflict with your projects dependencies.

ah, k - i guess thats a non-bug then, if im not following the recommended way to invoke

maybe it should.. 🤷 🙂
