Hello @jvesely
Thank you for creating this issue. We will investigate it and get back to you as soon as we have some feedback.

I confirm I am seeing the same issue: https://github.com/neurodata/scikit-tree/actions/runs/8895864721/job/24427188361?pr=264

Is there any temporary fix? Does downgrading to v4 work?

Hi. @aparnajyothi-y reported at #825 (comment) (thanks!):

We have reproduced the error in our local and found that the error is due to python<3.10 versions are not added to macos-14 runner image.

macos-14 aka. macos-latest has switched to being an ARM runner, only supporting newer versions of Python. If you need to support older versions, you may want to switch to macos-13.

• CI/Testing: Use macOS 13 on GHA crate/cratedb-examples#447
