Fix pre-installation of universal2 environment for OSX tests

[perrinjerome]

We need to pre-install the same versions that will be installed by buildout later. For most distributions there is a constraint in constaints.txt that we keep up to date with buildout.cfg, but not for MarkupSafe

[perrinjerome]

The tests are failing nowadays because we pre-install latest MarkupSafe , which today is 3.0.2, but buildout requires 3.0.1 so it needs to install a new version and can not use the pre-installed version.

This might not be the best way of addressing this, I don't fully understand how the versions in constraints.txt, tox.ini and buildout.cfg are kept in sync, but this seem to be an explanation and a possible solution for the test failures on OSX

Version pins are maintained in versions-prod.cfg and versions.cfg. The constraints and requirements files are auto-generated by running the buildout or by executing the util.py script in the root of the repository.

Thanks, then this looks like a bug in that script, it reads only versions-prod.cfg. versions-prod.cfg contains the versions of packages required to run zope in production and versions.cfg contains the versions of packages required to run zope in production, run tests suite and build documentation with sphinx.

Do you think the script should be amended so that it generates constraints.txt from versions.cfg ( and keep generating requirements.txt from version-prod.cfg ) ?

I can try to do this

I did this and replaced this pull request with the new approach, now util.py includes all versions in constraints.txt (and requirements-all.txt is not changed).

[dataflake]

No please do not touch that script. It is fine as is. I was mistaken in my description. It uses versions-prod.cfg. The goal is to just have the minimum requirements for running Zope and not huge files that pull in the world for stuff that is not needed in a production setting.

[perrinjerome]

OK, but in case we misunderstood each other: this change does not change the "requirements" file, only the "constraints" file, so when we install with pip install --requirement requirements-full.txt it still installs just the minimum requirements exactly same as today, what's different is only the constraints file, so that when we install with pip install --constraint constraints.txt zope.interface ... MarkupSafe like it's done in tox.ini these packages are installed with the same version constraints as when installing with buildout.

My problem right now is that I do not have access to a computer this week and I can only look at things on my phone. It's hard for me to cross-check anything or review anything other than small changes. I'll need to defer this PR until I am back home, or @icemac can chime in.

[perrinjerome]

Sure, no problem, let's wait.

If this approach is problematic, another idea I just have is that we could keep util.py as it is, generating requirements and constraints files from versions-prod.cfg and use the same approach to generate a constraints-test.cfg from versions.cfg and then change tox.ini to use -c {toxinidir}/constraints-test.txt instead of -c {toxinidir}/constraints.txt.
