What is the behavior if live dependencies can't be inferred?

and how would the user learn about it?

I'm just running into this case, which confuses me as two packages don't list versions.

Hm, do you have them in the current environment? If the packages are not in the current environment, then the versions are not given.

I think I don't have them in the current environment! It's a notebook from someone else (not published), and it seems the dependencies weren't fully specified in the pyproject.toml because this notebook is more of a note (a potential post) on design choices made for building readfcs.

• This here is the pyproject.toml for the package: https://github.com/laminlabs/readfcs/blob/47cb4ed7721b13c16a0d35a0af49863604de7279/pyproject.toml#L12
• This here is the note with the nbproject header: https://github.com/laminlabs/readfcs/blob/main/docs/notes/2022-05-24-readfcs-tools.ipynb

I think it'd be super super cool if the output up there would show fcsparser==not-installed pytometry==not-installed or something similar.

Wait, no, then the user can't copy paste anymore. Hmmm, maybe, show a logging output instead with a warning saying: logger.warning("Two of the dependencies are not installed: fcsparser, pytometry. And it prints that warning right below the header?

And then the user knows to run pip install on these to run the notebook? Does that sound like a reasonable UX?
