The error is because uvicorn-0.2.1.tar.gz won’t build. That in itself is a problem for the uvicorn project. But the question is why pip is trying to use such an old version of uvicorn. This is likely because of a conflict in your reqirements, but pip isn’t reporting what the conflict is.

Maybe that’s a result of #10655?

I suggest that if no one else is using your package as a dependency you take your current requirements file and look at your current successful installation and modify it to {requirement}>={successfully_installed_version},

I do not love the solution, but it resolve my problem, so I will go with it.
