Trying to install new extension but server part does not install

[profitgrowinginnovator]

I am trying to bundle a new server extension with Jupyter Desktop 4.0. When I try to install the extension which works in Jupyter Lab in the desktop version I get an error message saying the "the server extension seems to be missing". I have been looking for documentation on how to use extensions in the Desktop 4.0 but I have not found a lot of information. My assumption is that you just use pip install extension inside a notebook. If this is not the case, what is the right process? My extension is called deailab.

Here are the logs:

@mbektas Is there anything that @profitgrowinginnovator can do to help diagnose this?

[mbektas]

@profitgrowinginnovator I can reproduce the issue. The issue is not specific to Desktop app though. In the logs I see that there is a dependency missing (bacalhau_sdk). You can try first installing that on your system.
Logs:
deailab | error adding extension (enabled: True): The module 'deailab' could not be found (No module named 'bacalhau_sdk'). Are you sure the extension is installed?

[JasonWeill]

@profitgrowinginnovator After installing bacalhau_sdk, do you still see this error?

[profitgrowinginnovator]

Sorry did not see that you answered the message. My apologies.
I created a new version of the extension [0.1.9] which can be easily installed via the Pypi extension manager. When I install this inside Jupyter Lab everything works but when I install it via the Desktop it does not. As you can see from the list all required libraries are installed, so that is not it.

@mbektas I reopened this issue because @profitgrowinginnovator provided additional info above. Anything else to try?

[mbektas]

@profitgrowinginnovator I retried in a new Python environment. Pypi manager successfully installs the extension but I get the same error as you. and if I run import deailab in a code cell it throws an error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'bacalhau_sdk'.

There are 5 dependencies that I put in the package.json but for some reason it ignores them. Any suggestions how to fix this?
