rye mentions 3 different versions of Python, then fails at installing any

[ksamuel]

On Ubuntu 20.04 with deadsnake:

$ rye pin 3.11
pinned cpython@3.11.1 in /tmp/.python-version
 
$ rye init
success: Initialized project in /tmp/.
$ cat pyproject.toml 
[project]
...
requires-python = ">= 3.8"
...
$ rye run python

Rye mentions 3.11, 3.8 and 3.10, so I don't understand what's going on.

Unfortunately, adding the backtrace doesn't give much more info:

$ export RUST_BACKTRACE=1
$ rye run python

I'm assuming your tar version does not does support zstd compressed files. This requires some fixing.

[ksamuel]

Ping me if you want me to test it later.

I get the following, no matter which python version I pin.

[mitsuhiko]

Should be fixed with a466939

@ksamuel please let me know if this does not resolve the issue

[kabouzeid]

that fixed it for me. thanks!

[ksamuel]

With the new version I get the second error message only:

/tmp/foo/rye/target/debug/rye run python
Bootstrapping rye internals
error: No such file or directory (os error 2)

But give how generic it is, it's probably a different error give you are now untarring from rust.

[mitsuhiko]

@ksamuel it might be that it has a broken state in ~/.rye now. Just wipe that entire folder and rerun. Error reporting is pretty bad, definitely something that would have to be worked on.

[ksamuel]

Right on the money.

Everything works as expected after deleting ~/.rye (might want to put that in .config and .local).

I can now test it on entire projects.
