Wrong python version required in the prometheus_client conda package for new version (0.18)

Solution to issue cannot be found in the documentation.

Issue

The latest version of the prometheus_client conda package (0.18) gets installed in my python 3.7 environment as a dependency of jupyterlab. But as shown in the original github repository, python >= 3.8 is required for version 0.18.

I traced the issue to a wrong requirement in the conda package for version 0.18: it mistakenly requires python >= 3.6 (instead of >=3.8)

As a result, I cannot use my conda environment as is (errors are thrown when I launch jupyter lab). For now, the workaround is that I explicitly force my conda environment to use prometheus_client version 0.17.

Here's my conda environment yaml file:

name: test-env
channels:
    - conda-forge
    - nodefaults
dependencies:
    - python=3.7
    - jupyterlab

@olamarre something is amiss with your configuration b/c even though you have nodefaults you are getting packages from it. (All those packages without a channel in your list.)

Regardless, we do have that problem. See

prometheus_client-feedstock/recipe/meta.yaml

Line 18 in 44dbf86

- python >=3.6

I'll send a PR here to fix it but we also need to send a repodatapatch for the old builds.

Hi @ocefpaf - thanks a lot for the quick reply.

Indeed, there was something wrong with my conda configuration - it's fixed now (nodefaults works). But more importantly, the issue still persists. I just created a new environment again, and the version 0.18 of prometheus client still gets installed.

I see the new build in the conda package webpage, but the old build is still there and I think this is what still gets installed:

Here are the installed packages in the environment I just re-created (output of conda list):
