The behavior you describe is intentional _and_ deterministic. The library discovers distributions in the order found based on the search path provided, with the search path defaulting to sys.path. The expectation is therefore that the metadata should be discovered in its order of precedence. Thanks for the repro. I attempted to follow it, but was unsuccessful: ``` FROM jaraco/multipy-tox RUN git clone https://github.com/kkirsche/poetry-remove-untracked RUN pip install poetry WORKDIR poetry-remove-untracked RUN git checkout before RUN poetry install --remove-untracked RUN git checkout after RUN poetry install --remove-untracked CMD python -c "import importlib.metadata as md; print(md.version('poetry-remove-untracked'))" ``` Running that Dockerfile reports that the package isn't installed. ``` draft $ docker run -it @$(docker build -q .) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> File "/usr/lib/python3.10/importlib/metadata/__init__.py", line 955, in version return distribution(distribution_name).version File "/usr/lib/python3.10/importlib/metadata/__init__.py", line 928, in distribution return Distribution.from_name(distribution_name) File "/usr/lib/python3.10/importlib/metadata/__init__.py", line 518, in from_name raise PackageNotFoundError(name) importlib.metadata.PackageNotFoundError: No package metadata was found for poetry-remove-untracked ``` I think you'll have to teach me a bit about how poetry works in order to understand how to properly reproduce the issue so I can examine the relevant environment. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue46774> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
