IMO two action points should come as a follow up for this ticket:
1) in `python-language-server` deps `python-jedi` should be replaced to `python-jedi<0.16,python-jedi>=0.14.1` as in its own `setup.py`
2) `python-jedi` should be downgraded to 0.15 as there are no other packages who depend on python-jedi>=0.16

Status on this? It's really annoying :(

I agree with Yauhen. Until the pyls merge request (https://github.com/palantir/python-language-server/pull/781) is finished and they explicitly state jedi>=1.16 as a dependency, the package dependency should be python-jedi<0.16,python-jedi>=0.14.1 and if no conflicting packages exist, jedi should be downgraded.

Open a bugreport towards python-jedi if you think jedi should be downgraded. Also check that it doesn't break any reverse dependencies before doing so.

There was a bug report which was closed as a duplicate of this one.

 FS#66247  is not a bugreport discussing if python-jedi should be downgraded, of course it was closed as a duplicate.

Fair enough. I know how to search for reverse dependencies using pactree, but not how to get the version requirements of those dependencies.

You can't. You need to test the packages with a downgraded package.

Alright. As there are only 7 packages depending on python-jedi, I may have time to do this after work. Thank you.

You would look for version specifiers, eg.
https://github.com/palantir/python-language-server/blob/0.31.10/setup.py#L38

https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0440/#version-specifiers
https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setuptools.html#declaring-dependencies
https://python-poetry.org/docs/pyproject/#dependencies-and-dev-dependencies

At this point, you're probably better off testing https://github.com/palantir/python-language-server/pull/781 to see if there's anything missing. I think this will be merged and released shortly, but if not it could be backported.

The other option would have been to make a `python-jedi0151` package for the meantime.

This pull request (https://github.com/palantir/python-language-server/pull/781) has seen no changes in the last 11 days and there is no feedback on it being ready to merge. It looks finished though, so I refrained from searching for python-jedi0.15.1 conflicts.

I don't know if it takes less effort to just introduce a temporary python-jedi0151 package, but if this pull request remains unmerged, I have no problems looking up the version specifiers of all python-jedi dependencies during the weekend.

As it seems pyls is the only package that needs 0.15.1, a better option than a python-jedi0151 package was suggested:
"<heftig|M> or ship jedi 0.15 with it (either a renamed module or by installing it in another path and editing sys.path)"

Is it possible to apply that pull request as a patch? This was suggested here: https://github.com/palantir/python-language-server/pull/781#issuecomment-623198876. It looks like OpenSUSE is also doing it.

The pull request (https://github.com/palantir/python-language-server/pull/781) has finally been merged, but a new release only happens when this milestone (https://github.com/palantir/python-language-server/milestone/17) is reached.
Either we build the package from the current develop branch or we wait for the milestone.

Milestone is finished, 0.32.0 is out. Support for current jedi versions should be implemented.
The supported jedi version is specified as jedi>=0.17.0,<0.18.0.
