pipx upgrade does not work (eating up all ram)

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug

Running pipx upgrade <any package> (e.g. pipx upgrade ansible) does not work as intended.
Instead of upgrading the package, my ram filles up to 100% and pipx finally fails with no space left on device.
Normal pip upgrades are working without problems.

How to reproduce

pipx upgrade --verbose ansible

Full log in the comments, as it exceeds the character maximum of github (and pastebin)

Expected behavior

Package should’ve been upgraded.
