Error: decoding to str: need a bytes-like object, tuple found

[pi-yush]

I recently installed carml, and executing any command results in an error. Stack trace attached (with -d option):

carml -d stream -L

builtins.TypeError: decoding to str: need a bytes-like object, tuple found

It seems like there is some change in the way tor returns certain data that the carml's current implementation is not able to decode.

Can you say how you installed this?

I did a pip install carml in a new virtualenv (ended up with Python 3.9.2) and the above command worked. Can you dump your python version and results of pip freeze (if it's in a virtualenv) please?
