When installing the pds-doi-service from scratch I had an error with Flask version compatibility

[tloubrieu-jpl]

🐛 Describe the bug

When running

pip install -r requirements.txt

on a new virtual environment there is an error with the Falsk version compatibility

📜 To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. git clone ....
2. python -m venv venv
3. pip install -r requirements.txt

🕵️ Expected behavior

The pip install command should run without errors.

I think that works if I add an explicit version reference for Flask in the requirements.txt:

Flask==1.1.2

📚 Version of Software Used

@tloubrieu-jpl do we also to merge the doc changes from Eddie for Gary to test as part of this?

[tloubrieu-jpl]

@jordanpadams yes good idea. Although the document changes are not as critical for Gary just today.
