Description of the bug

When installing DPF standalone and trying to get the different dpf-server modules installed (through _paths_to_dpf_server_library_installs() function) , it happens the function crashes with error "AssertionError: SRE module mismatch".
This is the result of the mix of different python environment for whatever reason. This PR tries to mitigate this problem.

The python virtual environment providers tested are:

• poetry (with DPF standalone installed outside venv and inside venv)
• venv (with DPF standalone installed inside venv)

Steps To Reproduce

No reproducibility script has been found, but the error is not random.

Which Operating System causes the issue?

Windows, Linux

Which DPF/Ansys version are you using?

Ansys 2027 R1

Which Python version causes the issue?

3.13
