Hi ReassuredTiger98 !

I'm not sure the above will work. Maybe I can help in another way though: when you want to set agent.package_manager.system_site_packages = true does that mean you have a docker container with some of the correct packages installed? In case you use a docker container, there is little no real need to create a virtualenv anyway and you might use the env var CLEARML_AGENT_SKIP_PIP_VENV_INSTALL=1 to just install all packages in the root environment.

Because every task gets its own new clean docker container, there is no problem with using the root env. The nice thing is that in that way you get the system packages + any other ones that are installed by the Task.

Was that the outcome you meant? If so, please let me know when you tested it if it works for you 🙂 In the meantime we can think about your idea of making agent.package_manager.system_site_packages task-specific.
