uv: Editable package install fails after a previous uninstall
Steps to reproduce
- Activate a conda environment.
- Install a local package that I have using
uv pip install -e .
- Uninstall the local package using
uv pip uninstall -e .
- Install the local package again using
uv pip install -e .
I get the following error:
error: Cannot uninstall package; RECORD file not found at: path/to/site-packages/mylib-0.1.dist-info/RECORD
If I manually remove path/to/site-packages/mylib-0.1.dist-info
directory, then I am able to install my local package again.

Good news, I’m able to reproduce this on Windows 2019 in GitHub Actions! https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/pull/2259
