Fail installation on centos8 with specific python version

[yabb85]

• Poetry version: 1.7.1
• Python version: 3.11.5
• OS version and name: Centos8 stream
• pyproject.toml:

[tool.poetry]
name = "test"
version = "0.1.0"
description = "test packaging"
authors = ["Your Name <[email protected]>"]
readme = "README.md"

[tool.poetry.dependencies]
python = "^3.11"

[build-system]
requires = ["poetry-core"]
build-backend = "poetry.core.masonry.api"

• I am on the latest stable Poetry version, installed using a recommended method.
• I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.
• I have consulted the FAQ and blog for any relevant entries or release notes.
• If an exception occurs when executing a command, I executed it again in debug mode (-vvv option) and have included the output below.

Issue

We use CentOS 8 Stream to develop with python.
Like the default version of python (3.6) is not compatible with poetry, we install a new python version (3.11) and install poetry with the following command

curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | python3.11 -

after install, it is possible to use poetry init but all command used to manage dependencies and environments fails:

> poetry add tasklib
Creating virtualenv test-fuH6okzm-py3.11 in /home/laurent/.cache/pypoetry/virtualenvs

failed to query /usr/bin/python3 with code 1 err: '  File "/home/laurent/.local/share/pypoetry/venv/lib64/python3.11/site-packages/virtualenv/discovery/py_info.py", line 7\n    from __future__ import annotations\n    ^\nSyntaxError: fut
ure feature annotations is not defined\n'

Same result with poetry install...
The python used is /usr/bin/python3 instead of /usr/bin/python3.11 or /home/space/.local/share/pypoetry/venv/bin/python

Expected

Correct creation of virtualenv or package managing.

poetry and 3.6 don't play nice together (previously: #8185). You'll need to create the virtualenv some other way.

[yabb85]

To avoid issue with 3.6 I use the command with call to python3.11

curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | python3.11 -

If poetry is installed in virtualenv, the commands add and install freeze

❯ poetry install -vvvv

This issue is reproducible on other system with centos8 and python 3.11 installed

[dimbleby]

that doesn't seem to be anything much to do with where this issue started. But if you have a reproducible problem then please provide a way to reproduce it. eg a dockerfile is often a good way,

[dimbleby]

actually that's probably duplicate #8623

so please close this: the first part is duplicate #8185, the second is duplicate #8623

[yabb85]

Must I reopen a new ticket for issue seen when poetry is installed in virtualenv or I must continue on this ticket?
for me two possibilities:

• possibility to install poetry with specified version like the command displayed in ticket curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | /usr/bin/python3.11 - and continue this ticket
• fix install/add poetry command when poetry is installed in virtualenv.

Thanks

[yabb85]

Thanks the workaround in ticket #8623 fix the issue.

[dimbleby]

therefore please close this
