Issues that have been acknowledged, a solution determined and a PR might likely be accepted.
Milestone
skip_install
andusedevelop
can be used together in the same environment but the behaviour is not documented. If both flags areTrue
the package will be installed althoughskip_install
is requested (see also discussion here).The behaviour should be changed that
skip_install
overridesusedevelop
asusedevelop
is an option to choose the installation type if the package is installed andskip_install
determines if it should be installed at all.This is a somewhat breaking change of undocumented behaviour but I think this should be done to make the behaviour intuitively correct (but it should also be documented).
It should be also stated prominently in the changelog that this changed and how it can be fixed though. The documentation should be updated mention the behaviour when these two flags are used together.
