Cannot import freshly pip-installed Pyro5

Hello,

Installing Pyro5 from via pip for python3.8 seems to be broken. Here's what's happening:

Installing pyro:

$ pip3 install Pyro5
Collecting Pyro5
  Using cached Pyro5-5.11-py3-none-any.whl (77 kB)
Requirement already satisfied: serpent>=1.27 in ./.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages (from Pyro5) (1.30.2)
Installing collected packages: Pyro5
Successfully installed Pyro5-5.11

Launching a python shell and importing the server module:

$ python3

>>> import Pyro5.server
Traceback (most recent call last):

    @server.expose
AttributeError: partially initialized module 'Pyro5.server' has no attribute 'expose' (most likely due to a circular import)
>>>

The docs state that a pip install should just work, so I am not sure how to continue here. The OS is Ubuntu20.04.

I would be grateful for any ideas. It could very well be that the system is configured incorrectly somehow, and Pyro5 is not at fault.
