[Instagram] KeyError - 'post_date'

[throwaway242685]

I think IG stories are broken, or something... (?)

I'm running gallery-dl with these parameters:

--mtime date
--sleep 2-10
--sleep-request 15-45
--user-agent "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:129.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/129.0"
-C "C:\0\(IG).txt"
-c "C:\0\0.json"
-o include=stories 

but, I'm getting this error:

[instagram][error] An unexpected error occurred: KeyError - 'post_date'. Please run gallery-dl again with the --verbose flag, copy its output and report this issue on https://github.com/mikf/gallery-dl/issues .

here's the full verbose log:

I've made a mistake and broke stories and highlight downloads. Revert back to the last dev build for now.

[throwaway242685]

how do I revert back to that version?

i'm using gallery-dl from pip.
