Wrong version for the requests package #230

Closed petasis closed 3 years ago

petasis commented 3 years ago

Hi all,

There is a package installed from the os package manager (requests==2.22.0), and then there is requests==2.25.1 installed with pip install --user.

pip freeze returns requests==2.25.1. pipreqs returns requests==2.22.0. How to fix this?

No matter if I use --use-local.

This probably happens because your "OS python" is not really the same as your "user python", if you want to generate a requirements.txt with respect to your user python you have to force its use instead of the OS one. Using a virtual environment might help. The --use-local flag has nothing to do with this so it shouldn't help either
