When scanning my repo I get the following error:
An error occurred while attempting to collect Python package information.
We suggest the following:
1) Ensure that your dependencies file (e.g. requirements.txt) is not corrupted and can be read.
2) Check that your network is working and you can access PyPi.
3) you can run command `pip install -r requirements.txt` or `pip install -e .` successfully in your machine.
However, all of the suggested fixes have been implemented, to begin with. Could this be a possible error on Veracodes end?
