I will commit my fix to coMET and cross fingers that the error doesn't appear in the build system

That's a good point.

In any case, this should not prevent you from committing your fix to
coMET. The issue is specific to the state of your current installation
and it won't show up on the build system (where all dependencies are
re-installed every day at the beginning of the builds).

Also, for you, the issue will automatically go away when all package
versions get bumped the day of the release.

Cheers,
H.
