I’m afraid it’s not very likely: the reality is that the great unvendoring helped many more users than it inconvenienced. I appreciate that it has caused problems here, but the better solution may be to see if we can widen the pin to support the older chardet version.

looks like you need to update your chardet to the versions specified 😃
