How to fix error 'could not acquire write lock for 'artifact:org.bytedeco:opencv:4.5.5-1.5.7' ?

Question

depes.edn:

{:deps {org.deeplearning4j/deeplearning4j-nlp {:mvn/version "1.0.0-M2.1"}}}

It happened before in an older Clojure version, but disappeared, see here:

https://clojurians-log.clojureverse.org/tools-deps/2021-09-16

Now I have it back with a recent clojure CLI:
1.11.1.1200

The workarround is still to limit the number of download threads;

clj -Sthreads 1

So it only happens to me using (the default) multi-threaded downloading.

Answer 1

I haven't been able to reproduce this and haven't had any other reports from anyone on this for a while, so not going to create a ticket for now.

Comments

I cannot reproduce neither from work, on a fast network.
I will try again from home later, on a slow line.

I can reproduce it  by limiting the bandwidth of my work machine.

So first running:

sudo wondershaper -a eth0 -d 1024 -u 1024

to limit download bandwith to 1MBit/s

and then starting the clj from latest Clojure Docker image

docker run -ti clojure clj -Sdeps '{:deps {org.deeplearning4j/deeplearning4j-nlp {:mvn/version "1.0.0-M2.1"}}}'


fails with:

Thanks, I think I understand why we're seeing this again and have some things to look at
