4.0

Version 4.0 is a complete rewrite of how structures are handled as Python classes and instances. Structures and structure members are now proper Python class(instances) and can be used for e.g. typing purposes.

There is a good chance that your code that depends on dissect.csturct needs at least some slight modifications to work with version 4.0. You can look at the other dissect projects to get a feel on what these changes may be; look for the commits titled: "Compatibility with cstruct v4".
