pkg_resources.VersionConflict: (pandas 1.3.5 (~/miniconda3/envs/myenv/lib/python3.8/site-packages), Requirement.parse('pandas==1.3.3'))

Hi there,

I'm getting this pkg_resources.VersionConflict error.

$ liccheck -s liccheck.ini

~/miniconda3/envs/myenv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/setuptools/command/install.py:34: SetuptoolsDeprecationWarning: setup.py install is deprecated. Use build and pip and other standards-based tools.

pkg_resources.VersionConflict: (pandas 1.3.5 (~/miniconda3/envs/myenv/lib/python3.8/site-packages), Requirement.parse('pandas==1.3.3'))

I'll admit I don't fully understand the error. I'm also a bit confused as I didn't think liccheck would check for dependency version conflicts - is there a way to turn this off maybe?

Many thanks for any help, and for this great tool!

I found this was as a result of having a different version of pandas installed to what my requirements.txt specified.
