I have the same issue, and I could not solve it even trying to change the venv several times. The package causing it is pypandoc and I also have it installed.

Just going to remove whaaaat - seems to just give everyone issues and has a bunch of random deps. Will just make it a number input command instead of interactive.

same on windows 11

I fixed it by changing the version of the pypandoc package. Pushed a branch. gh pr checkout 23. Alternatively, the whaaaat could try long_description = pypandoc.convert_file('README.md', 'rst') instead. Hope it helps!
