Wing Pro 8.1.0.0 (rev 17249ff49bb2); pip 21.3.1, Python 3.9.7 64 bit on Win 10 Setup a project in a virtual env and I'm able to run and debug it in it. I tried to use the Packages feature to add black to the project and am getting a continuous error; from show console:

First time using version 8 of the IDE, did I do something wrong?

Could you try reinstalling Wing 8? The traceback doesn't make sense -- there are not imports at line 25 or 28 of pipdeptree.py

I suspect the problem here is that a fix for this problem in Wing 8.1 is not loaded if you got to 8.1 via Check for Updates in the Help menu. If that is correct then installing 8.1 from https://wingware.com/downloads/wing-pro will solve it. We'll fix this so the update manager does the right thing in the future. Thanks for reporting this problem.

I did update from the help menu. I uninstalled and reinstalled using a downloaded installer and I see packages now. Thanks for the help.

Great, thanks for confirming that!

To follow up on this: Failure to use the updated pipdeptree.py will be fixed in 8.1.0.1 when it is available (probably in a few days).
