A new requirement symengine has been added for Linux (on x86_64, aarch64, and ppc64le) and macOS users (x86_64 and arm64). It is an optional dependency on Windows (and available on PyPi as a precompiled package for 64bit Windows) and other architectures.
Not only the processor and the operating system, but also the bitness of the Python installation seem to play a role. So far, I have only actively observed the problem under Linux with a complete 64bit installation.
edit1 (@zickgraf): I have also tried to recreate the problem in a Windows VM. But I am already failing at the installation of Qrisp because some DLLs (llvmlite.dll) are not found. Is pip install qrisp not sufficient under Windows?Either way, I cannot specify steps-to-reproduce for Windows. However, I suspect that the problem also occurs there if you make Qiskit Terra use symengine.According to the linked release notes, this is supposed to be optional and bring speed advantages.
edit2 (@sea): I think I have fixed the problem. Can you check it again?
edit3 (@zickgraf): The error continues to occur for me as of 97bbbdef.
