ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'google.cloud.datastore_v1.gapic'

Recently started seeing this error on a python3 appengine project I've been working on. Only noticed the issue today and I believe it is related to the recent new version. For context, I am running my code locally using dev_appserver.py, which is temp installing my python 3 requirements at runtime.

In my requirement.txt file, I have google-cloud-ndb==1.7.0 (https://pypi.org/project/google-cloud-ndb/). This packages lists google-cloud-datastore>=1.7.0 as a dependency (in setup.py), which (as I understand it) is grabbing the most recent version (if google-cloud-datastore is not already installed or is installed at a version lower than 1.7.0). However, in https://github.com/googleapis/python-ndb/blob/master/google/cloud/ndb/client.py, the code has the following import (line 26) from google.cloud.datastore_v1.gapic import datastore_client, but this falls over now, because the latest version of google-cloud-datastore does not have this file.

The problem is "fixed" by adding google-cloud-datastore==1.7.3" to the requirements.txt file _before_ google-cloud-ndb, but I think this is something that should really be updated in google-cloud-ndb`'s dependencies.

Thanks. I've just realised that I was checking for issues (and raised this one) against the wrong project 🤦 . Closing.
