`poetry install` fails due to a `KeyError`

[BrunoLiegiBastonLiegi]

Running poetry install -vvv fails for me:

(edit: sorry forgot to mention that this is the verbose mode -vvv without it you just get a printed b"HEAD")

Ok, that's pretty peculiar. The suitable place to post it is actually https://github.com/orgs/python-poetry/discussions (Poetry should not spit an internal error in your face, no matter what - so that's close to a bug...), but I'm interested in the solution/explanation myself.

In any case, that's apparently not due to Poetry itself, since you're passing through poethepoet

  18  ~/python_envs/qibo/lib/python3.11/site-packages/poethepoet/plugin.py:276 in _run

(Poetry is loading it as a plugin, even if you're not invoking it directly).

So, as a first attempt, I'd try to uninstall poethepoet and rerun poetry install.

yeah no ok this was a problem of mine, locally, deactivating and reactivating the environment apparently solved it...
