Internal Error: AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'relate'

[apallin]

Hello,

I am getting this constant error with my pytest setup and I don't know whats going on. This seemed to start occurring once we stopped using pytest-xdist and removed it as a dependency on the project. This error isn't very useful and I have no idea where to begin to debug this.

Packages used:
"pytest==2.8.2",
"pytest-rerunfailures==0.5",

I have seen other threads relating to a similar problem but with no resolution.

INTERNALERROR> return entry.path != cutdir1 and not entry.path.relto(cutdir2)
INTERNALERROR> AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'relto'

Can you please try with the current master? This should've been fixed in #1142, but isn't released yet (but hopefully very soon).

Seems to be fixed on master. Any idea when this will come out or a workaround? This is blocking us quite a bit.

I'm closing this then. I hope the 2.8.3 release will be this week, see #1181.

2.8.3 just was released thanks to @RonnyPfannschmidt 🎉
