I tried to re-run some code with the newest version of sacred that used to work with a sacred version from late 2019 and now get the following error. The problem already seems to occur when trying to import the FileStorageObserver. What would be the best fix for this issue?

I am using python version 3.6 on macOS Mojave 10.14.6.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/k47h4/anaconda3/envs/topdown_plasticity/lib/python3.6/site-packages/importlib_metadata-4.12.0-py3.6.egg/importlib_metadata/_compat.py", line 9, in
from typing import Protocol
ImportError: cannot import name 'Protocol'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

The entire code can be found in this repository: https://github.com/k47h4/interneuron_circuits_plasticity
Here is a code snippet from run_code.py:

from sacred.observers import FileStorageObserver

def run_in_thread(values):
    from Spiking_model import ex
    ex.observers.append(FileStorageObserver.create('Spiking_model'))
    ex.run('run_network')

values1 = np.array([0])
n_threads = len(values1)   
pool = multiprocessing.Pool(n_threads)
pool.map(run_in_thread, values1)

Thank you!
