Since you don't directly list google-api-core or google-cloud-core in your requirements.txt file, you are right in saying that it is a dependency of one of the packages you have in your requirements.txt file and was installed as that package was being installed. I also agree with you that the package should install the correct version of whatever dependencies it needs.
However, my experience is that these issues (version restrictions) are usually not known upfront, they are discovered as users use the package and raise an issue, and the version pinning is a 'work around' till they fix the issue. This means you will usually find this documented under the 'issues' section on the GitHub page for the library. For example, one of the templates in our App <https://nocommandline.com/>, uses the datastore library and when we ran into issues, we found a work around here <https://github.com/googleapis/python-ndb/issues/568#issuecomment-724999321> . * .....* NoCommandLine *......* https://nocommandline.com *A GUI for Google App Engine* On Wednesday, August 25, 2021 at 10:03:35 AM UTC-7 Joshua Smith wrote: > That makes sense.
