I am not sure how to fix the issue below as it appears that the jupyterlab and gitlab extension are both v4.0.0:
"jupyterlab-gitlab@4.0.0" is not compatible with the current JupyterLab
Conflicting Dependencies:
JupyterLab Extension Package
>=4.0.0 <4.1.0 >=4.1.2 <5.0.0 @jupyterlab/apputils
root@:/opt/jupyterhub/bin# ./jupyter labextension list
JupyterLab v4.0.0
/opt/jupyterhub/share/jupyter/labextensions
jupyterlab-gitlab v4.0.0 enabled X (python, jupyterlab-gitlab)
Do you notice any issue in the functionality of the extension? If you dont, you can safely ignore the message. In case if you find any problems in working of extension, please post it here.
this can be closed. I was using the wrong extension. I installed jupyterlab-git and uninstalled jupyterlab-gitlab and I can now see the tab in the GUI. Thanks for your feedback and assistance.
