julia> using StableRNGs, Random

julia> shuffle!(StableRNG(123), [false, true, false])
ERROR: MethodError: shuffle!(::StableRNGs.LehmerRNG, ::Vector{Bool}) is ambiguous.

Candidates:
  shuffle!(r::StableRNGs.LehmerRNG, a::AbstractArray)
    @ StableRNGs ~/.julia/dev/StableRNGs/src/StableRNGs.jl:144
  shuffle!(r::AbstractRNG, a::AbstractArray{Bool})
    @ Random ~/.asdf/installs/julia/1.11.0-beta1/share/julia/stdlib/v1.11/Random/src/misc.jl:223

Possible fix, define
  shuffle!(::StableRNGs.LehmerRNG, ::AbstractArray{Bool})
