Research direction

Start with requirements.txt and the reported urllib3==1.26.20 constraint, then reproduce the installation failure for the affected Python version. Check the compatible urllib3 range and update the dependency declaration if appropriate; verify installation succeeds across the supported Python versions.

Description

Hello, I had a problem installing the latest version of oci-cli and looking at the requirements.txt file I noticed that it requires urllib3==1.26.20; python_version < '3.10'

Looking at the project, the latest version of urllib3 is 2.6.3 and the previous version is 2.6.2.
https://pypi.org/project/urllib3/#history

The error was exactly in the lib file urllib3==1.26.20.
