Description

https://github.com/scipp/copier_template/blob/c721391396a659e8d8f3ab2c76c5c03f71b44dd5/template/tox.ini.jinja#L15-L19

Here we are trying to fetch the latest release of the all the base requirements and the last release of package itself. Is the intent here to test the last release of the package with no pins, or the current main branch with no pins (or we should be doing both)?

The failures at https://github.com/scipp/ess-project?tab=readme-ov-file#ess are for packages which have no releases on pypi yet.

Research direction

Start with template/tox.ini.jinja lines 15-19 and inspect how the tox environment resolves the project and its base requirements. Review the linked ESS failures, then define whether the environment should test the latest release, the current main branch, or both, including projects without a PyPI release.
