Attempting to use the kubernetes client with

from kubernetes import client as kube_client

I get

Traceback (most recent call last):

Unable to reproduce. Used the following steps:

pyenv local 3.9.14
python -m venv env && source env/bin/activate
python -m pip install urllib3==1.26.5 requests==2.31.0 google-auth==2.19.0
python -c 'import google.auth.transport.requests' # no error
python -m pip install kubernetes
python -c 'from kubernetes import client as kube_client' # no error

Can you provide a reproduction in a docker image?

Can't reproduce either on a clean OL9 image myself.

I'll check what the differences are with the actual instance in OCI.

Feel free to re-open once you have a repro @eduardocorral ! Thanks
