With more plugins going Beta and with frequent releases of pulpcore and pulpcore-plugin an issue with dependencies version showed up: - plugin requires pulpcore-plugin == 0.1.0bX - pulpcore-plugin 0.1.0bX requires pulpcore >= 3.0.0bY - at some point pulpcore introduces backward incompatible changes and the newest pulpcore is incompatible with the old pulpcore-plugin. E.g. https://pulp.plan.io/issues/4317
It would be less of a problem when pulpcore goes GA but till then it is not nice user experience. Options to solve the issue: 1. Pin pulpcore with every pulpcore-plugin release 2. Pin pulpcore directly in a plugin 3. Don't do anything, we are in Beta, it will be fine when pulpcore is GA, semver will keep us from introducing backward incompatible changes in the Y or Z releases. 4. anything else? As a side note, we already have an issue with having multiple plugins installed if they require different pulpcore-plugin versions, so pinning pulpcore wouldn't introduce a new problem. Again this should be solved when we go GA, in my opinion. Any thoughts or concerns are welcome. Thank you, Tanya
