Hi I'm looking at converting some packages to use pip 10.0 and PEP 518 (build-time requirements specified in pyproject.toml). One limitation I need to deal with is that I don't see a way to specify a version pin at the time pip is called. For run-time dependencies one can pre-install all requirements (using pip install -r) with pinned versions, or you can constrain versions of dependencies at install time using --constraint. However, I haven't found an equivalent option to constrain the build-time dependencies of a package.
I realise I could specify version pins in pyproject.toml, but that feels unsatisfactory for the same reason that version pins in setup.py would: pinning exact versions is a deployment issue, not a packaging issue. Any tips? Is it worth filing a bug on --constraint not affecting build requirements, or is that by design?
