Installation of 6.0.x fails with ChefBuildError

[m4rc3l-h3]

Hi, thank you for this great project and all the effort put into it!

I am trying to install vcrpy 6.0.x via poetry in the following environment:

• VSCode Remote Development container based on mcr.microsoft.com/vscode/devcontainers/python:1-3.12-bullseye
• Python 3.12.3
• pip 24.0
  with the following command: sudo poetry add vcrpy which fails with the following error message:

Using version ^6.0.1 for vcrpy

Note: This error originates from the build backend, and is likely not a problem with poetry but with vcrpy (6.0.1) not supporting PEP 517 builds. You can verify this by running 'pip wheel --no-cache-dir --use-pep517 "vcrpy (==6.0.1)"'.

Running the command in the error message gives me the following:

sudo pip wheel --no-cache-dir --use-pep517 "vcrpy (==6.0.1)"

I tried to update related tools as suggested in this SO post with: pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel and installing system packages sudo apt-get install python3-wrapt python3-setuptools to no avail.

However, installing sudo poetry add vcrpy@5.1.0 works without any issue.
Any help to further debug or resolve this issue would be much appreciated! Thank you.

Crazy. I was literally just opening this same issue. I'm having the same issue. I am not using poetry but am using pip. I see this:

What makes my issue extra weird is this whole thing started due to me trying to upgrade opencv. If I install opencv-python==4.7.0.68 and vcrpy==6.0.1, I have no issues. If I install opencv-python 4.10.0.84, bamn, vcr.py won't install and I get this message.

EDIT - I'm install this in a Docker container with 3.10-buster base.

Not sure what's up here.

FYI I had the same issue but I would not say this is vcrpy issue.
It's a setuptools's compatibility issue and it can be fixed by following this comment.

So until today, I'd never seen this, and our prior builds said they used 6.0.1

Not sure this would work in my case. I will try it, but opencv locked setuptools to a bizarrely specific version - 52 dot something, not at my PC. The link suggests keeping setuptools under version 72, so I should be good there.
