Ran into some requirements issues with PyYaml==6.0

[shdobxr]

Upon the installation of required components I get

While installing 6.0 of PyYAML. Checking the web, I noticed others were having challenges with that version pinned for other projects. So I updated PyYAML to 6.0.1 and retried to install and it worked.

Running on Apple M3 Silicon, 🤷🏻 unclear what with 6.0 doesn't work, but 6.0.1 definitely installed without a problem. I have a hunch it may be related to as 6.0 was broken by Cython 3.0 release, they patched it in 6.0.1
