Good question. I've asked it in https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/6536 because I want to check with other pip maintainers. On a separate note: the error messaging improvements in 20.2 available with the new beta resolver (such as pointing to this conflict resolution guide https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/user_guide/#fixing-conflicting-dependencies ) are going to be very helpful to you as you and your users while debugging ResolutionImpossible errors. Enjoy! Insamuch as such a situation is enjoyable. -- Sumana Harihareswara Changeset Consulting https://changeset.nyc
