Internal server error on deploy (updating dependencies)

[plutonium-239]

I have a very simple requiremenets.txt:

dash
dash-bootstrap-components

(and the package size of dash is ~39 MB, and for the other package is ~1 MB)
This is well within the 250 MB limit, so why is it giving an error?

It looks like even including all dependencies from dash, it really doesn't gets anywhere near 250 (perhaps unless you are also including pandas, idk) - but when I tested pip installing these into a fresh venv locally, it seems to get stuck doing something for quite a long amount of time?

I'm not sure what, why, how, or even if it's Dash fault or some dependency, but it sure took a long time - so my guess would be just that deta is timing it out during that time.

Yes, I can replicate the same.
Actually, I figured out that plotly was taking the most time to install (and is also the biggest package - 91 MB).
It is a dependency of dash.

I tried pip freeze req.txt, editing plotly out of this req.txt (its not required if you're not making graphs), and then in a new venv, doing pip install --no-deps -r req.txt
This did not remain 'stuck' (in installation) like the one with plotly.

However, I don't know of any option to tell deta deploy to use --no-dependencies option in pip install.

@etrotta do you know of any?
I would really like if they added this as a simple option (maybe with deploy cli)
