Conflict with other libraries due to psutil version

[RodriguesRBruno]

Hi all!
I'm currently running into a library version conflict due to the psutil dependency in synapseclient.
The synapseclient has a very strict dependency (psutil~=5.9.8), while a different library in my environment requires psutil >=6.1.0. Would it be possible to bump the required psutil version or at least loosen this requirement?

Hi @RodriguesRBruno Thanks for raising the issue.

I pushed #1268 into a branch to expand this range.

If you install from source for that specific branch:

https://github.com/Sage-Bionetworks/synapsePythonClient?tab=readme-ov-file#install-from-source

Does that meet your requirements to work with that other library?

pip install git+https://github.com/Sage-Bionetworks/synapsePythonClient@expand-psutil

Hi @BryanFauble.
Installing with that branch appears to work fine, pip did not raise any errors. Thanks for the speedy reply!

Thanks @RodriguesRBruno I'll work with my team and make sure that this gets into the next release when we get that out. In the interim you'll need to use that branch and/or develop when I merge in the PR.
