Python restricted dependencies for multiple Python versions fail: 'Array' object has no attribute 'strip'

• I am on the latest Poetry version.

• I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.

• If an exception occurs when executing a command, I executed it again in debug mode (-vvv option).

• OS version and name: Ubuntu 18.10

• Poetry version: Poetry 0.12.11 (bug does also affect 0.12.10)

• Link of a Gist with the contents of your pyproject.toml file: https://gist.github.com/okin/9fca594f2a4ba9917f1c292752d21e4c

Issue

I want to configure an dependency that is only applied when specific Python versions are used. The documentation shows an example that matches my case: pathlib2 = { version = "^2.2", python = ["~2.7", "^3.2"] }

I added this to my project config. Whenever I now try to run poetry install, poetry update or poetry check I am greeted with the following message:

[AttributeError]            
'Array' object has no attribute 'strip'  

No further action is done as poetry appears to break in this case.

Debug output from poetry check

[AttributeError]            
'Array' object has no attribute 'strip'

Workaround

No error is shown when configuring it as multiple requirements but no further testing was done if this actually would resolve correctly.

pathlib2 = [
	{ version = "^2.2", python = "~2.7" },
	{ version = "^2.2", python = "^3.2" }
]

Hi @stephsamson , I was in your tutorial at Pycon.de 😃

Regarding the fix, I chose not to support an older Python version in my project so I have no need for the double pipe any more. However, it is good that you put it in the docs. It was definitely missing there.

Thanks for your time.

@webartifex does using the double pipe fix your issue?
