When a repo sets the <PROJECT>_PIP_REQUIREMENTS variable, run-task will automatically install the requirements file after cloning the repo. This is primarily used for bootstrapping Taskgraph in the Decision task, but can also be used for other things.
We recently upgraded the image to Debian 12, which includes Python 3.11. This version of Python fails when you attempt to pip install into the system Python:

We'll work around this by passing --break-system-packages for now (this is probably fine anyway, especially with Docker). But it highlights some poor behaviour. It would be better to create a virtualenv first or use a non-system Python (perhaps installed via pyenv).
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
When using `pip` this is a no-op as `pip` already implicitly detects
that the system site dir is not writeable and falls back to the user
dir.
For the `uv` case, this was never working and should get unblocked by
this fix.
