Hello!

I'm deploying a new service to Railway; this one has never been on Railway before. I have a fairly short requirements.txt of 8 items -- but some of them do take a while to install:

aiohttp==3.8.5
falcon==3.1.3
newspaper3k==0.2.8
openai==1.50.2
pydantic==2.9.2
pymupdf==1.24.10
SQLAlchemy==2.0.20
uvicorn==0.31.0

When I deploy, it ticks away for a while and then says that failed some time ago (eg, 'failed 84 seconds ago'). The logs look like the following. I'm not sure what to make of it, but "Text file busy: '/opt/venv/bin/python'" hints to me something is not right with the virtual environment that is being installed for Python.

One other weird thing. I configured with Python as the provider, and have a setup line to invoke pip to install via requirements.txt. But when I clicked Deploy, I saw a second Python appear in the provider list, so there were two of them listed in the providers field. Is it possible there's a bug somewhere? Is it running Python twice?
