Has anybody observed this before? I’m currently migrating from

1.88.0

to

2.3.0

and I noticed that when I now do

meltano install

it skips the

inherit_from

plugins. I can install them individually like

meltano install extractor tap-core-mysql

. Is this a bug similar to https://github.com/meltano/meltano/issues/3442

@lars this might just be a misleading log message, there was a change around the 2.0 launch to have inherited plugins use their parent plugin's virtual env under the hood. Prior to this each inherited plugin would get its own venv which was unneeded, caused long install times, and grows disk usage unnecessarily. It looks like the log message says theyre skipped, meaning they didnt get fully installed just pointed to their parent plugin installation. You should still be able to run those inherited plugins even though it says they were skipped, do they work for you? If so I think it would warrant an issue to clarify the log messages.

@pat_nadolny Yes that’s right. I still had each virtual env in my .meltano folder. After a clean install, I’m able to run the inherited plugins. Thank you for your help

@lars awesome, still feel free to open an issue with feedback on why the log messages were confusing from your experience and if you have any suggestions to make them better!

Yes I’ll open an issue. I’m sure more people will find it confusing. Thanks @pat_nadolny
