Very old version in ports.
I have error with pandas:
ImportError: Pandas requires version '3.0.0' or newer of 'openpyxl'
(version '2.6.4' currently installed).
Alex,
Upstream does not declare/register a dependency (required or optional)
on openpyxl in setup.py/setup.cfg/etc but tests for it (3.0.0) within
their 'compat' module [1] via upstream issue #39603 [2] added in the
following commit:
https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/commit/d5d43e0fa930f9bc96e3dcabf6eeb880c4fc6637
Notably openpyxl is listed within Optional Dependencies, describe as:
"If the optional dependency is not installed, pandas will raise an
ImportError when the method requiring that dependency is called."
This appears to be intentional error/messaging used to communicate to
pandas users that the method being used requires an optional dependency,
that is currently not available/installed, rather than a port/package bug.
A better UX for ports users would be to add OPTIONS that map to the
categories of additional functionality, depending on the relevant
optional dependencies. Example:
- HDF depending on pytables
- XLSX Support depending on openpyxl
- etc ...
