Update Built-in libraries in new Environment

Hi everyone,

I am working in notebooks in Fabric, and I want to update a built-in library to a newer version, by creating a new environment and installing the newer version through PyPI.

However, when I start a session with the new notebook, it still uses the same version as in the public library (transformers 4.37.2 instead of 4.49.0).

I have also tried installing it through %pip and !pip install. This works in the current session but does not install when I create a new version. I have been given admin rights, but that does not help either. Has anyone experienced this?

I have experienced this. It's baffling that nobody suggested this, but unfortunately this page reads like 99.9 of all requests for help with Microsoft I've ever seen.  Conda packages override pypy ones. Try adding the packages needed from conda  instead of pypy in the environment package area.  You should see the option at the top left in the same screen that you posted the screenshot of.

Hi,

I have done both, but unfortunately, that it is not the issue.

Hello @MikkelFeddersen 

Few things to check :

1) Please make sure in new env , publish of library is successful (Not just saved)

2) selectthe environment from the Environment dropdown in your notebook
