Description
Consider the case where Tahoe initially depends on foo >= X.0, and foo X.0 depends on bar Y.0. Then foo X.1 is released which depends on bar Y.1. (This is a common situation, especially when foo and bar have overlapping development teams.)
Suppose that a particular machine has bar Y.0 installed globally. What is supposed to happen is that, in the case where a Tahoe build on that machine downloads foo X.1, it also downloads bar Y.1 and builds it under support/.
However, that doesn't happen. Instead we get an error:
error: Installed distribution bar Y.0 conflicts with requirement bar>=Y.1
For a concrete example, see https://tahoe-lafs.org/buildbot-tahoe-lafs/builders/memcheck-32/builds/96/steps/compile/logs/stdio:
