I’m trying to install pgadmin4 on Archlinux using pip inside a virtual environment pip install pgadmin4. Versions 8.11 and above (current is 8.14) fail and raise InvalidVersion exception:
ERROR: Exception:
...
pip._vendor.packaging.version.InvalidVersion: Invalid version: '6.12.4-arch1-1'
I tried downgrading setuptools to version 65, but in vain.
Version 8.10 is working fine pip install pgadmin4==8.10 (with setuptools-70.3.0 installed as a dependency) .
If I understood well, Python ecosystem recently made some version formatting guidelines mandatory and “refuses to work with” any software that do not comply with them. So Archlinux version format ‘6.12.4-arch1-1’ should be changed to comply with those guidelines in order for pgadmin4 to be installed … Please correct me if I’m wrong.
Any clues on how to install the latest version of pgadmin4?
PS: If this can help, here is my full stack trace:
