`~=1.42.0` is a patch-level pin (`>=1.42.0,<1.43`), so it cannot reach opentelemetry-proto 1.43.0 — the release that lifted its own `protobuf<7.0` cap. Because opentelemetry-exporter-otlp-proto-http pins opentelemetry-proto exactly, that cap propagates to every crewai install and makes crewai un-co-installable with any package requiring protobuf >= 7. `~=1.42` is a minor-level pin (`>=1.42,<2`): it still refuses 2.x and still admits 1.42.x, so nothing currently resolvable stops resolving. Both packages change together because crewai pins crewai-core exactly, so widening one alone leaves the constraint in place via the other. Verified by resolving the whole workspace (all six members, 52 external requirements) against a protobuf>=7.36 floor: unsatisfiable before, resolves after — picking opentelemetry 1.44.0 and protobuf 7.36.0. The two runs differ only in these three pins. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01RtPvJJYAnNXaavYFEt2wY6

Regenerate the repository lockfile for both updated dependency manifests, then run the targeted telemetry compatibility tests.
The widened ~=1.42 constraints are not reflected in the current lock state, which can make locked validation fail and prevent resolution of newer compatible OpenTelemetry releases. Verify the crewai and crewai-core telemetry initialization, tracing, and OTLP HTTP export paths with OpenTelemetry 1.44.0 before merging.

The problem
~=1.42.0is a patch-level pin —>=1.42.0,<1.43— so it cannot reachopentelemetry-proto1.43.0, which is the release that lifted its ownprotobuf<7.0cap.Because
opentelemetry-exporter-otlp-proto-httppinsopentelemetry-protoexactly(
==1.42.0,==1.43.0), there is no resolving around it. The cap propagates into everycrewaiinstall, so
crewaicannot share an environment with anything requiringprotobuf>=7.The change
Three pins, in two packages:
~=1.42.0→~=1.42.Per PEP 440 that moves from patch- to minor-level compatible-release:
~=1.42.0>=1.42.0,<1.43~=1.42>=1.42,<2So it still refuses 2.x and still admits 1.42.x — nothing that resolves today stops
resolving. It keeps the existing operator style rather than switching to
>=.Both packages change together because
crewaipinscrewai-coreexactly; widening one aloneleaves the constraint in place via the other.
crewai-cliinherits it fromcrewai-core, so nochange is needed there.
Verification
Resolved the entire workspace — all six members, 52 external requirements after dropping
intra-workspace pins — against a
protobuf>=7.36,<8floor:requirements are unsatisfiable"
opentelemetry-{api,sdk,exporter-otlp-proto-http,proto}==1.44.0and
protobuf==7.36.0The two runs differ only in these three pins, so the change is isolated as the cause.
What I have not verified: that the test suite passes against OpenTelemetry 1.44. I checked the
constraint resolves, not the runtime behaviour — your CI is the right place to establish that, and
it's a fair thing to ask before merging.
Why this keeps coming back
The same conflict has been reported here at least three times and closed each time without the pin
changing: #4511 asked for precisely this relaxation and was auto-closed as stale after five days;
#4474 (google-adk) and #5845 (OpenLIT) are the same root cause wearing different clothes.
Those were requests to support a newer version, which reads as a feature ask. This is narrower: the
upstream fix already shipped in
opentelemetry-proto1.43.0, so the only thing standing betweenusers and it is a pin that is one granularity level tighter than it needs to be.
Where I hit it
Building an SDK whose generated protobuf stubs require
protobuf>=7.36. Downstream users currentlyneed two virtualenvs to run it alongside CrewAI. Happy to adjust the constraint style if you'd prefer
something else — the specific form matters much less than being able to reach 1.43+.
