I also installed dev-python/pipenv as recommended for instances where a user will be installing packages via pip and not want to pollute the Gentoo main Python.  See https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Python/Virtual_environment

I created a virtual Python environment "map" and entered is and launched jupyter lab.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. source map/bin/activate  ["map" is the name of the virtual python environment I created with dev-python/pipenv]
2. in the virtual environment's shell: jupyter lab
3. Within Jupyter Lab, try to install the extension "jupyterlab-sql-explorer
A JupyterLab extension for Database" by clicking "Install" button
Actual Results:  
In the Jupyter Notebook in the left column re: Extensions, after clicking "Inatll" for the *jupyterlab-sql-explorer*

    The system-wide Python installation in Gentoo should be maintained
    using the system package manager (e.g. emerge).
   
    If the package in question is not packaged for Gentoo, please
    consider installing it inside a virtual environment, e.g.:
   
    python -m venv /path/to/venv
    . /path/to/venv/bin/activate
    pip install mypackage
   
    To exit the virtual environment, run:
   
    deactivate
   
    The virtual environment is not deleted, and can be re-entered by
    re-sourcing the activate file.
 
note: If you believe this is a mistake, please contact your Python installation or OS distribution provider. You can override this, at the risk of breaking your Python installation or OS, by passing --break-system-packages.

Expected Results:  
Successful installation of the extension jupyterlab-sql-explorer.

I acknowledge that I installed jupyter using a Gentoo package, but then ran the jupyter lab" command in a virtualized environment.  

This approach makes sense to me since keeping the Gentoo Python environment pristine should be paramount.  Perhaps the Gentoo packages for the installation of jupyter presuppose Jupyter's ability to add additional extensions in Gentoo's main Python environment?  If this is the case, I submit that the isolating Juypter in a virtual environment should be a preferred course, or at least an alternative.
Comment 1 John L. Poole 2024-09-24 20:36:29 UTC
I then existing my virtual environment in a a regular shell launched:
    jupyter labs

and then I tried to install the same extension.  I received this error message:


	Error when performing an action.

So the non-installation appears to be no dependent upon which Python environment the jupyter labs instance is started in.

Here is the console from the regular system Python shell:

Does running `pip install jupyterlab` or `pip install --user jupyterlab` while inside your virtual environment solve the problem?

Thank you, @nvinson234.  Your suggestion seems good; however, given that I have installed the Gentoo package, I think it unwise to then try installing jupyterlab via a virtual environment when there is installed the Gentoo package.  I could see uninstalling all the jupyter packages and then trying your suggestion so there is only one jupyter instance on the box.

Before doing anything, I'd like to see what the package's maintainer or team overseeing that package has to suggest.

This is expected, installing python packages into the system sitedir with pip is disabled. Because having two package managers write to the same sitedir is a recipe for disaster.

To solve your problem, either:
- write an ebuild for jupyterlab-sql-explorer
- pip install --user jupyterlab-sql-explorer (i.e. use portage's version of jupyterlab et al, while using a user install of jupyterlab-sql-explorer, this may break at some point)
- use jupyterlab from virtualenv or --user sitedir instead, as already suggested above
- enable the "break-system-packages" setting for pip, as suggested by the error message. As the name of this option suggests, this may break the system packages.

Nothing further we can do here, there is no bug in jupyterlab, it is simply calling pip.
Comment 5 John L. Poole 2024-09-29 15:54:14 UTC
So the viable options I see are as follows:

1) Jupyter install using Gentoo's Jupyter packages.  You can install extensions, but do so in a virtual environment specifying a user.  However, installation of an extension in this fashion may result the extension no longer working in the future given potential upgrades within Gentoo's Jupyter packages.

2) Jupyter install within a virtual environment.  Keep the Jupyter isolated in the virtual environment as well as any extensions.


Seems to me that the above two choices (realistic as the other "break" something) whittle down to: If you plan to use extensions currently not available in Gentoo, then build Jupyter in a virtual environment.  If you expect to only use what is currently available in portage, then use the Jupyter package.

Thank you.  I think I'll purse the #2 route and keep my options open in case there are other extensions I want to try.
