Hey @jo460464 ,
thanks for reporting this.
I think this might have already been addressed here:
See: #636

Try installing the latest development version of elephant with:

pip install git+ssh://[email protected]/NeuralEnsemble/elephant.git@main

[jo460464]

I am already at the most recent I think, is there a newer version than 1.1.0

[jo460464]

I mean I see that #636 describes my bug, but in my installation at least it is still present

But in the problem seems to be local, thanks Moritz
