I'm not certain I follow. You're using upper-constraints for install time consistent version selection, and that applies to *all* dependencies no matter how many levels down they are. You *could* extract and manipulate the upper-constraints file for each container, and assuming 1 container 1 service that will probably give you want you want. The only trick is for data that is passed over the RPC between services. For example having different versions of oslo.context in the nova conductor and nova-compute containers would be a bad thing. Is that kinda what you're asking? If not a more concrete example would be very helpful. > Is there a best practice for doing such in the python ecosystem? Nope. in the python eco-system you more or less get what you ask for and it;s up to you to find a spot on the prescriptive <-> flexible line. Yours Tony.
