Issue with Poetry 1.3.1 and Python 3.10 in Github Actions.

[fbalo-medium]

• Poetry version: poetry 1.3.1
• Python version: Python 3.10
• OS version and name: Ubuntu 22.04
• pyproject.toml: https://gist.github.com/fbalo-medium/61d6f65bb38e598a700c53dc2055c476

• I am on the latest stable Poetry version, installed using a recommended method.
• I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.
• I have consulted the FAQ and blog for any relevant entries or release notes.
• If an exception occurs when executing a command, I executed it again in debug mode (-vvv option) and have included the output below.

Issue

An issue I just discovered is if you are using a Python version lower than 3.10 (even if you set Poetry to accept Python 3.8 or higher in myproject.toml) in your project and try to run that project in an environment that runs 3.10, it raises an “Invalid version '1.1build1' on package distro-info” error.

I suspect Poetry sees Python 3.10 as Python 3.1.

This happened when I tried to running Poetry in a Github Action environment. When I explicit choose the version to be 3.8, it worked.

This is a Ubuntu python packaging quirk; use setup-python instead to get an upstream-style Python free of this non-compliant version.

setup-python

Can you expand on this? I am using pyenv and get this error.

I think they refer to https://github.com/actions/setup-python GitHub Action. Just put it before your requirements installation step in your workflow file and that should fix your issue.

I'm also running into this issue.
I absolutely need to enable system-site-packages because I need to access a Python package that can only be installed via apt.
This issue is blocking me from using poetry, for all that I know.

Same with poetry==1.4.2, python 3.9, in Github CI.

EDIT: Somehow, I resolved it, not exactly sure what changed. It is possible I installed poetry twice.

I've resolved this issue installing poetry from original sources.
