• I am on the latest Poetry version. (1.0.2 & 1.0.1)

• I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.

• If an exception occurs when executing a command, I executed it again in debug mode (-vvv option).

• OS version and name: CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804

• Poetry version: 1.0.2

Issue

Since poetry 1.0.1 we experience that already up-to-date site-packages (with the correct versions) are reinstalled by poetry, as it tries to update them, similar to #1711 (there it was about dist-packages). This was still working in poetry 1.0.0. This happens when not using poetry's virtualenv feature (using poetry config virtualenvs.create false), in this case we are using conda to manage the environments.

Here's a part of the poetry install output, when running it the second time:

  - Updating more-itertools (7.2.0 /u/jonathan/conda-envs/segm-3.6/lib/python3.6/site-packages -> 7.2.0)
  - Updating decorator (4.4.1 /u/jonathan/conda-envs/segm-3.6/lib/python3.6/site-packages -> 4.4.1)
  - Updating ipython-genutils (0.2.0 /u/jonathan/conda-envs/segm-3.6/lib/python3.6/site-packages -> 0.2.0)

It seems that site-packages can never match the version, so poetry tries to upgrade them, even when the version actually matches.
