requirements.txt is too strict

[Lex-DRL]

The node pack conflicts with a plenty of other nodes, because it requires:

• fairscale>=0.4.4 (conflicts with any node using any version of torchscale)
• opencv-python-headless[ffmpeg]<=4.7.0.72 (conflicts with opencv-python>=4.7.0.72 in comfyui_controlnet_aux and albumentations>=1.4.10 in ComfyUI-AdvancedLivePortrait)

Are these dependencies up to date? Does the node pack actually needs these specific versions?

ERROR: Cannot install fairscale>=0.4.4, torchscale==0.1.0, torchscale==0.1.1, torchscale==0.1.2, torchscale==0.2.0 and torchscale==0.3.0 because these package versions have conflicting dependencies.

To clarify: I'm not claiming the requirements are redundant. I'm just pointing at the issue: in my experience, for many months WAS node suite was the only custom node (out of a few dozens) which constantly breaks the entire venv in both Windows (11) and Linux (Manjaro).

It leads to an undesired dilemma: EITHER a user installs WAS node suite OR a plenty of other nodes. And I believe, we all know the outcome.

For reference, here's a list of nodes in my installation (to me, all of them seem pretty essential):
