You must be more specific: which platform (Windows, Linux, ...etc). Which version of Python, what is the full error output. – s.ouchene Jan 19 '20 at 12:16

collections.Iterable is deprecated. Replace it with collections.abc.Iterable.
See this answer for compatibility : https://stackoverflow.com/a/53978543/13369176

Since this is a problem usually occurring in library code not mine, the quick fix might be instead of
import collections
to write
import collections.abc as collections
and fill the bug in the repository of the respective project.
