Hi guys, when installing Prefect 1.* with the rss extra, Python 3.10.6 and Pip 22.2.2 I am getting

INFO: pip is looking at multiple versions of feedparser to determine which version is compatible with other requirements. This could take a while.

1. How can I solve this? 2. Can’t we upgrade the feedparser requirement?

Related to setuptools breaking change in v58.0.0 https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/history.html#v58-0-0 You may want to downgrade it to

setuptools<58

as a quick workaround 🤷 (Not testested)

My question is if we need need to have feedparser >=5.0.1. can’t we upgrade the requirement?

maybe try installing it separately from prefect? hard to say

Sorry

no worries at all 🙌
