Hi!
I stepped on an issue similar to #30929

Poetry allows to specify exact dependency without ==

my-cool-package = "1.2.3, !=1.2.3.4"

However such format is invalid for renovatebot.

Minimal reproduction is here https://github.com/doc-sheet/renovate-poetry-fails-semver

If you have an exact matching what is the need of the !=? And, is that a valid approach as per poetry docs using equal and not equal in the same string?

As per the pep440 docs, it seems you don't need the != part

Well. In my case it happened eventually and left more like a comment for future me.
Like "never ever use this version"
I just noticed issue when checked package versions myself.

Since it is valid expression for poetry I decided to create an issue.
