Do we really need asgiref in requirements.txt?

[Woseseltops]

In our deploy.sh script, it automatically reruns pip install -r requirements.txt... but this failed because:

ERROR: Cannot install -r /var/www/repo/requirements.txt (line 2) and typing-extensions==3.10.0.0 because these package versions have conflicting dependencies.

The conflict is caused by:
    The user requested typing-extensions==3.10.0.0
    asgiref 3.7.2 depends on typing-extensions>=4; python_version < "3.11"

For now, I fixed this by commenting out asgiref. Can this also be the permanent solution?

I can't find references to either of these in the code.

Maybe some other package that is imported? Or from CNGT scripts?

I see you commented it out on the server. (I did a git stash and git stash apply to pull, so it remains so.)

[susanodd]

This requirement is commented out on the live server.

Is it possible this is used by Swagger?

I found the commit where it was added:
