Removing pip<25.3 in constraints

Private JIRA Ticket

https://2u-internal.atlassian.net/browse/BOMS-277

Summary

There is a breakage currently in pip-tools that failed several / many / all? python requirement upgrades: https://github.com/jazzband/pip-tools/issues/2252 The temporary solution may be to pin pip to the last minor version, but it does look like a fix in on the way.

Findings

The error is stemming from the removal of the legacy setup.py bdist_wheel support in https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/6334 which removes the optional flag --use-pip517 that had been added for the support of deprecated legacy functionality.
Since all versions of pip-tools utilize this flag for the pip-compile command, the new version pip==25.3 is now breaking with all the versions of pip-tools hence the need to pin pip as a solution for this until pip-tools provide a workaround for this issue in their next release.

TODO

• Pin pip<25.3 in constraints
• unpin pip<25.3

Finden Sie den Constraints-Eintrag, der pip auf eine Version unter 25.3 festlegt, und prüfen Sie das verknüpfte pip-tools-Issue, um zu bestätigen, dass der Workaround nicht mehr benötigt wird. Entfernen Sie die Einschränkung und verifizieren Sie anschließend, dass die relevanten pip-tools-Requirement-Upgrades mit pip 25.3 erfolgreich kompiliert werden können.
