I open another bug report in pip repo pypa/pip#5877

I don't know it's pipenv problem, which pass a normalize name, according to PEP 503 or egg_info_matches problem

[immerrr]

This is a duplicate of #3000 which is itself a duplicate of #2956.

[messa]

Maybe issues like #2956 should be kept open until a new version that fixes it is relesed, not closed as soon as a fix is commited to git.

For many people it doesn't work because they don't install from master but they cannot find the original github issue because it is already closed.

[uranusjr]

@Mesa Unfortunately that isn’t really a viable option, at least not at the moment. We don’t have the person/time to actively hunt down issues and close them manually, and have to rely on the integrated issue-closing feature of GitHub to keep us on top of things. I am certainly open (and I believe others would be) if there is a technically realistic solution to this, or if there is spare personnel resource for this job (would you be that person?).

[rcoh]

I'm in the same boat as @messa -- I searched for "dot" in the open issues. When I didn't find any, I created yet another issue. I might suggest adding a "fix version" with the projected version the fix will land in to label to issues that are fixed in master but not yet released. An even simpler solution might just be to tag issues with Fixed in next release

When that version is released, you can just find all the issues with that tag and close them. Not sure if that is still to much work -- hopefully it would save a bit of work in closing the duplicate issues that inevitably get generated in the current workflow.

[uranusjr]

I’ve sort of implied this in my previous comment, but I’ll be more blunt here. @rcoh Do you want to take the job and do the tagging from now on? This does not happen automatically.

[MikiGrit]

The described issue still happens. My pipenv is version 2018.11.26 and following command failed:

pipenv install ufal.morphodita

It adds "ufal-morphodita = "*" (which does not exists) to Pipfile.

[uranusjr]

Thread summary for newcomers: The root of this issue is in pip, but the fix unfortunately missed the last release (18.1). pip 19.0 (expected January 2019) should resolve this.

You can track the 19.0 release here: pypa/pip#6106

[MikiGrit]

Ok, thanks for answer.

[muhammadyibr]

@Westflame @uranusjr I am trying to install pipenv install stompest.async and this is what I am getting Could not find a version that matches stompest-async

It's working fine when I use simple pip, not sure if this is a problem on pip side

[muhammadyibr]

@Westflame I had to go to Pipfile and change the package name there which was replaced with stompest-async while it should have been stompest.async, this fixed my problem
