RISCV-DV not running on RHEL 8. Python files throwing pydantic package error

Hmm, that's not great! I suspect this is a Pydantic versioning problem: they had a backwards-incompatible change that we only switched to using back in August. It might be that you've got the version that we used to require. If that is the problem, I think that pip3 install -U pydantic will get it working.

I don't know what's weird. The pydantic package was fine. Python version was the issue. Python could not pick up Pydantic 2.5.2 and was defaulting to Pydantic 1.9. After creating a symlink to redirect all my versions to python 3.8 installed directory, the files were taking the correct path. I can close the issue now. In the python_requiements.txt, there may be a need to add a version check >=3.8.

I was able to run basic-arithmetic-test as a sample and it passed the checks.

Thank you for the answer.
