Issues trying to pip install Raven

[makeclean]

Hi all, I'm having a few issues installing Raven, I tried a native install in my linux distribution (FC42) but this failed due to Cython being too new for some of the pinned version of scikit-learn, I've then been time travelling through older and older FC* versions using singularity, but it seems I've now gone so far back in time (some time in 2021) that I'm getting other failures. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Hm, which version of Python are using using? We currently use 3.10 and 3.11 (so newer versions will not work). Also, if you can copy the exact error message, that will help. Thanks.

Yeah, I'm bleeding edge on Fedora, so 3.13.7 currently

I've ended up going back to FC34, which mostly seems to work - builds ok - but running and example I get the following error

Hm, how are you installing python packages? (FYI, Fedora 42 does include python3.11 and python3.10, but you do have to install them specifically using dnf https://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/42/Everything/x86_64/os/Packages/p/ ). (Also, we haven't tried RAVEN with Python 3.9 for awhile, so it probably also will not work.)
