[Ark-kun]

It would be nice if it included this fix jupyterlab/jupyterlab#5814 for kubeflow/pipelines#252

@Ark-kun Has this been released? What version of jupyter lab do you want?

We should be installing the latest version of jupyter from pip

kubeflow/components/tensorflow-notebook-image/Dockerfile

Line 119 in 5c4fc0b

RUN pip install --upgrade pip==19.0.1 && \

Can you check your version using pip3 freeze?
The version in my notebook is 0.35.4 https://pypi.org/project/jupyterlab/0.35.4/ which has been released in November while the fixed version is 0.35.5 https://pypi.org/project/jupyterlab/0.35.5/

Technically, that's not guaranteed
That command first installs tensorflow (which might be installing some old version of jupyterlab) and then asks to have any version of jupyterlab without --upgrade.

# Tensorflow

AFAIK, this issue is solved though.

I've verified that it's fixed in KF 0.7
