A construção de Read-the-docs falha com "não é possível importar o nome 'PackageFinder' de 'pip._internal.index'"

A compilação de documentos do Sphinx em read-the-docs falha com o seguinte erro (log completo abaixo):

ImportError: cannot import name 'PackageFinder' from 'pip._internal.index' (/home/docs/checkouts/readthedocs.org/user_builds/cascade-python/envs/latest/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pip/_internal/index/__init__.py)

Fiz algo errado ou isso é um bug no read-the-docs?

Uma compilação local dos documentos do Sphinx funciona bem.

O problema e a correção estão descritos na edição de leitura dos documentos # 6554 ( https://github.com/readthedocs/readthedocs.org/issues/6554 ):

Atualmente, todas as compilações estão falhando porque a atualização automática (desde o número 4823) para o pip 20.0 estava com erros (consulte pypa / pip # 7620). Existe agora uma versão 20.0.1 que parece ter corrigido o problema para outras pessoas ... mas como posso forçar meus readthedocs a também atualizar para a versão .1?

A correção é limpar o ambiente de compilação da seguinte maneira (isso é obtido em https://docs.readthedocs.io/en/stable/guides/wipe-environment.html ):

• Faça login para ler os documentos
• Ir para versões
• Clique no botão Editar da versão que você deseja limpar no lado direito da página
• Vá para a parte inferior da página e clique no link de limpeza, ao lado do botão "Salvar"
• Agora você pode recriar a versão com um ambiente de construção novo!

Essa correção funcionou para mim (mas, em 26 de janeiro de 2020, você precisa eliminar o ambiente de cada compilação - veja o comentário do Grimmy abaixo).
