Getting AttributeError: module 'yaml' has no attribute 'safe_load' about riscv-dv

[ww18735135443]

I has this problem"AttributeError: module 'yaml' has no attribute 'safe_load'" too

You will see this error if python can't find the yaml module.
The reason you dont see the normal "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'yaml'" error is because the base dir of the repo contains a directory called yaml, which python presumably assumes is the missing module so you get the slightly more cryptic message.

(You can confirm this by renaming the yaml directory)

Like me, you probably have a broken Python install

Can you try if "pip install pyyaml" solves your problem?

I am closing this issue now as it doesn't seem like a flow issue itself.

Thanks for reply .
I tried with the above command . Still getting the same issue.
I think this is due to the attribute name safe_load is not present in yaml.
Please help to resolve this issue.

The command works fine for me. safe_load is part of yaml package

sudo pip3 install PyYAML worked for me
