AssertionError when adding a package with same name as project

[ierezell]

• I am on the latest Poetry version.
• I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.
• If an exception occurs when executing a command, I executed it again in debug mode (-vvv option).

• OS version and name:Linux 5.18.7-arch1-1
• Poetry version: 1.1.13
• Link of a Gist with the contents of your pyproject.toml file:

[tool.poetry]
name = "ASuperPackage"
version = "0.1.0"
description = ""
authors = [""]
 
[tool.poetry.dependencies]
python = "~3.9"
 
[tool.poetry.dev-dependencies]
 
[build-system]
requires = ["poetry-core>=1.0.0"]
build-backend = "poetry.core.masonry.api"

poetry add ASuperPackage # like sagemaker (pip) vs sagemaker (the name of my poetry project)

Issue

The error is only an AssertionError which does not says why the add is failing.
After banging my head on the wall, I found out that my poetry project name was the same of the pip package I wanted to install (in my case sagemaker)

I don't know how we could solve that, maybe a more descriptive error ? A version check of the packages (sagemaker is 2.97.0, my package 0.1.0) ?

Thanks in advance,
Have a great day.

Hey @ierezell,

this was reported earlier in #236 and was solved by #3841 which is included in the current preview release (1.2.0b2).
