make test fails: Poetry configuration is invalid: Additional properties are not allowed ('group' was unexpected)

[cbm755]

I'm on Fedora. I did:

• dnf install poetry (never used this before, I know its probably better, etc etc but I'm slow to adopt new things)
• dnf install pre-commit.
• pip install pylama

When I try make test, I get:

poetry run python3 -m unittest

  RuntimeError

  The Poetry configuration is invalid:
    - Additional properties are not allowed ('group' was unexpected)

I uninstalled my distro-provided poetry and did pip install poetry, which got me:

$ poetry --version
Poetry (version 1.3.2)

Now make test works:

$ make test
poetry run python3 -m unittest

Is is possible to declare a minimum value of poetry?

Hi, glad you got it working! By the way, the recommended way to install poetry uses their install script or pipx instead of pip because this will keep the packages needed by poetry separate from the packages of your system user.

Is it possible to declare a minimum version of poetry?

Unfortunately no, I don't think so, judging from a quick search online, see: How to enforce a minimum python poetry version and the linked ticket poetry #3316
