error: resolution-too-deep

× Dependency resolution exceeded maximum depth
╰─> Pip cannot resolve the current dependencies as the dependency graph is too complex for pip to solve efficiently.

hint: Try adding lower bounds to constrain your dependencies, for example: 'package>=2.0.0' instead of just 'package'.

Hi there,

Thanks for raising this—resolution-too-deep occurs when pip’s dependency resolver finds the graph too large or complex to solve efficiently. Here are a few things you can try:

1. Constrain your dependency versions

Instead of unbounded requirements, give pip some hints. For example, in requirements.txt, setup.py or pyproject.toml use:

some_package>=2.0.0,<3.0.0
another_package>=1.5.0

2. Upgrade pip

Newer pip releases often have performance improvements in the resolver:

pip install --upgrade pip

3. Split the installation

If you offer extras (e.g. [dev], [docs]), install core requirements first, then extras:

pip install .
pip install .[dev,docs]

4. Use a dedicated dependency manager

Tools like pip-tools (pip-compile → pip-sync), Poetry, or PDM can handle large graphs more robustly and generate a locked requirements.txt.

If none of the above helps, could you share a bit more info?

• pip --version and python --version
• The contents of your requirements.txt or pyproject.toml
• The full error output (copy‑pasted)

That will help pinpoint which dependency chain is causing the resolver to exceed its depth. Feel free to drop those here and we’ll dig in!
