ERROR: Invalid requirement: 'myLibraryName>=1.0.0.*': .* suffix can only be used with == or != operators myLibraryName>=1.0.0.*

Since recently the libraries configured via a text file (e.g. requirenments-bug.txt > attached) cannot be installed due to following error:

...
2024-06-26 15:37:30.832 [info] ERROR: Invalid requirement: 'zipp>=3.18.*': .* suffix can only be used with `==` or `!=` operators
    zipp>=3.18.*
        ~~~~~~~^ (from line 1 of c:\git_mappings\rof-motion-test-development\requirements-bug.txt)
...

As far as I could see the pip update will be done:

...
2024-06-26 15:37:21.618 [info] CREATE_VENV.UPGRADING_PIP
Running: c:\git_mappings\rof-motion-test-development\.venv\Scripts\python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip
...

and with pip 24.1 the error occurs.

E.g. with pip 22.0.4 the error does not occur.

We do update pip to latest in your environment on creation. If that is not working you can downgrade pip in your environment manually. But this is a bug on pip (https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues)

Thanks @karthiknadig.
I've created an issue for pip: pypa/pip#12802

But this is a bug on pip (https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues)

FWIW this is not a bug on pip side, but pip 24.1 included the breaking change of finally being PEP 440 compliant.
