Hi there, is there any chance that the
mf_env-creation.lock
can cause deadlocks? Am using Metaflow 2.11.9+netflix-ext(1.1.2) and when running a flow locally that needs two separate containers (built with the
@pypi
decorator), I have had a lot of trouble with file locks. Despite deleting these if they exist, I always get a
Timeout occurred while acquiring lock /home/xxx/miniforge3/envs/mf_env-creation.lock
after 60 minutes When debugging, it seems like there are two threads stuck at the same point, which suggests a deadlock to me. Is this a possibility or is it more likely that I am doing something wrong?

Added this to the doc and reduced the default time to 5 minutes from 1h.
