Description

  • I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.
  • I have searched the documentation and believe that my question is not covered.

Feature Request

Currently when running poetry-install.py for a specific version the dependencies of that specific poetry version are resolved at install time and may include recently published versions.

For example, poetry==1.1.11 required cryptography>=2.0
This has been incrementing to pull a newer and newer version of cryptography which ultimately broke a CI docker build I run when the newest version started requiring a rust compiler.

It would be great if we could deterministically install poetry - even if that required the 1-time generation of a poetry-install lock file.

Research direction

Start by reading poetry-install.py and the constraints.txt context in the issue, then trace how dependencies are resolved for a requested Poetry version. Define how a generated lock or constraints file would be used; done means installing a specific Poetry version produces deterministic dependency versions without requiring newly published incompatible packages.
