astropy.utils.introspection.minversion fails when running pytest using the development version #16601
Description
Description
I am trying to get into the world of helping to contribute to Astropy, so if I've made any mistakes with this report let me know! I am working through the development section of the astropy docs and I have gotten to the point where I am testing the developers copy. I am running astropy in a conda environment and I got one failure on astropy.utils.introspection.minversion. The docs said to report this, so that is what I am doing. The conda environment is working just fine, I just figured I should clarify I am not running in my base environment. I also ran a test using tox and got the same failure.
JSON report: report.json
Expected behavior
Install development version of astropy in conda environment using python -m pip install --editable ".[test]"
run pytest in the astropy directory
no test failures
How to Reproduce
- clone astropy
- create conda environment
- run python -m pip install --editable ".[test]"
- run pytest in the astropy directory

Hi @Parkerwise, I think I know where your problem is :
astropy 0.1.dev37458+gcacde01is clearly wrong, but indicates that your local copy of the code doesn't include our version tags. Here's how to fix thisThis may be an oversight in our documentation, in which case we should mention it there.
Let me know if this is sufficient to get back on track !
(Also, disclaimer: I typed this message from my phone, and even though I've tried to be careful, the code might still contain typos, but at least it gives you the gist of it!)
