Comments

As @fjetter mentioned in https://github.com/dask/community/issues/308#issuecomment-1448100495, there was a regression in the latest release which caused groupby operations for dask.bag to fail. Florian has already fixed the issue in https://github.com/dask/dask/pull/10005. I'll propose we push out a patch release tomorrow (March 1) if there are no blockers.
