Application labels aren't unique, duplicates: netbox_bgp

[sistemmsn]

Current Behavior

I'm trying to install the plugins from the documentation presented on your github but I end up getting an error.

Yes it works if I don't install the plugins, but that's what makes it useful to the system, otherwise what would be the point?

Expected Behavior

[root@veltesta netbox]# docker compose build --no-cache
Compose can now delegate builds to bake for better performance.
To do so, set COMPOSE_BAKE=true.

What I don't understand is why it tells me that the plugin is duplicated if its documentation mentions that it should be added in the plugin.py

If I do it manually it works fine.
/usr/local/bin/uv pip install ipfabric-netbox netbox-bgp

But it lacks modules ipfabric-netbox

Well, I see that Docker is somewhat complicated to use with Nextop, especially if it hasn't matured.

Maybe it's too late, but I had a similar issue while upgrading NetBox from 4.1.x to 4.2.x. I also had the error message Application labels aren't unique, duplicates: netbox_bgp.

My problem was that I had another plugin (netbox-plugin-dns) which I forgot to update to the version compatible with NetBox 4.2.x.

If you have other plugins installed, try to disable them, and only enable one after the other until you get the error.
