Details

Description:
The version of pipenv currently being shipped is too new. It requires setuptools>=60.0.0 [1], but the python-setuptools only provides 59.5.0 [2]. When you run pipenv, it crashes with the error “The 'setuptools>=60.0.0' distribution was not found and is required by pipenv”.

Additional info:
Package version: 2022.4.21-1

Steps to reproduce:

1. Run pipenv

Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  I've pushed pkgrel 2 out with the downgrade patch in place as a temporary fix. It appears upstream may have unintentionally updated the requirements when removing py3.6 support. See: https://github.com/pypa/pipenv/issues/50 75#issuecomment-1109062812

If anyone experiences further issues with the package please either re-open or create a new ticket. Thanks!

The relevant upstream PR also bumps pip version besides setuptools https://github.com/pypa/pipenv/pull/5066

After installing fresh setuptools via pip --user, pip itself becomes the problem when using pipenv:

pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'pip>=22.0.4' distribution was not found and is required by pipenv

What is the temporary mitigation to fix this while we wait for upstream to fix this bug?
Is it safe to update setuptools locally with pip?
I have a lot of projects that depend on pipenv.

I downgraded to python-pipenv 2022.3.28-1 and added it to IgnorePkg for now.

I would not install setuptools locally if you rely on this environment as it's a major version upgrade.

Thanks, I will take those steps.

Quick status update on this: I've reached out to upstream to provide any feedback on a patch I created to downgrade the bump in setuptools and pip to 59.5 and 21 respectively. Also have reached out to the python-setuptools maintainer to see if we're blocked on anything for getting setuptools to latest. FWIW I've built pipenv and tested it with the patch (see attached, used with attached PKGBUILD) locally and it _appears_ to fix the situation. However, the majorver bump for setuptools upstream indicates a distutils default change which.. I don't know if/how that impacts pipenv without doing more digging which takes time (and unfortunately haven't had much to spare as of late). Will follow up once I either hear back or am able to do more digging.
