dependency "packaging" used without definition in pipfile

[frichtarik]

v3.8.4 fails because it requires packaging

but that module and it's version is not mentioned in pipfile

I have the same issue, temporary fix is to do the manual install : pip install packaging

Got error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  ...
  from webdriver_manager.drivers.chrome import ChromeDriver
  File "/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.10.7/x64/lib/python3.10/site-packages/webdriver_manager/drivers/chrome.py", line 1, in <module>
    from packaging import version
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'packaging'

This problem killed my test pipeline. Even doing pip install packaging caused chromium to stall in my linux container. Reverted back to 3.4.3.

I am also affected by this error, our testing jobs now are failing because of the packaging problem:
error message:
