ImportError: cannot import name '_make_rich_rext' from 'typer.rich_utils'

Hi! I am trying to install and use zabbix-cli but I am probably doing something wrong:

❯ zabbix-cli
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/faust/.venv/bin/zabbix-cli", line 5, in <module>

ImportError: cannot import name '_make_rich_rext' from 'typer.rich_utils' (/home/faust/.venv/lib/python3.12/site-packages/typer/rich_utils.py). Did you mean: '_make_rich_text'?

I am on Alpine Linux 3.20.

I also tested it in various Debian version (11 and 12), same problem, see below:

What am I doing wrong (or am I hitting a buggy dependency?).

Hm, that is weird. I bumped the minimum Typer requirement to 0.13.1, which changed this internal name (https://github.com/fastapi/typer/pull/959). Somehow I must have forgotten to commit this change before building the newest version. I'll build a new version shortly that fixes this.

I'll also look into adding a compatibility shim and make that more robust (we shouldn't use internal functions from other libraries, but Typer is not very customizable, so we have to use some dirty hacks).

thanks @pederhan !

Fixed in https://github.com/unioslo/zabbix-cli/releases/tag/3.4.0. Thanks for bringing this to my notice!
