KeyError: 'TURKEY' when importing Zipline with Python v3.7 and v3.8

[HelmieCapital]

Good day,

There seems to be an inexplicable key error when importing Zipline.

Can someone please explain what the issue is ?

The import suddenly stopped working in my project since last night.

Here is the traceback:

Workaround already posted for this - it's not a discussion item, so should probably be removed from "Discussions"

[HelmieCapital]

Thank you Rich,

Will remove

hey fam, I'm having a hard time finding the work around. how did you fix it?

[RichardDale]

Workarounds mentioned in various places including here:
#114
#118

(hint: pin the package version of iso3166=2.0.2)

It is actually fixed in the main code, but not yet a formal Zipline-Reloaded release. Looking forward to the v2.2.1 (or v2.3?) release. Thanks for your efforts Stefan & MBounouar.
#117

Hey thanks for the reply!

I thought zipline was discontinued? or was it only dropped by quantopian and picked up by someone else?
