[macos] poetry add fails when file or path is in /tmp or /var

[bplotnick]

• Poetry version: 1.2.2

• Python version: 3.9.13

• OS version and name: macOS 12.1

• pyproject.toml: pyproject.toml

• I am on the latest stable Poetry version, installed using a recommended method.

• I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.

• I have consulted the FAQ and blog for any relevant entries or release notes.

• If an exception occurs when executing a command, I executed it again in debug mode (-vvv option) and have included the output below.

Issue

When the file or path is is /tmp or /var on macos, poetry add /path/to/file.whl fails silently. When rerun with -vvv we get an AssertionError in mixology/partial_solution.py:_register (full stacktrace here). This is the same symptom as #6054, which is marked solved. This also has different repro steps.

Repro:

• mkdir /tmp/bar
• pip download -d /tmp/bar requests
• poetry add /tmp/bar/requests-2.28.1-py3-none-any.whl`

Note that pip install works here as does poetry add /private/tmp/bar/requests-2.28.1-py3-none-any.whl

I do not reproduce

it looks as though you're installing poetry inside the same virtual environment that you are asking poetry to manage

   1: fact: foo depends on poetry (^1.2.2)

don't do that, you're likely to end up with poetry installing and uninstalling packages that it needs itself, with predictably unhappy consequences.

We also ran into this issue on macOS 11.7 and 12.6.1. Running poetry lock was failing with no error messages. Changing the local wheel path to something other than /tmp/ allowed us to progress beyond the failure
