These are the lines. From the log, it had this problem after processing PYLS==yapf

Any idea how to fix this? I have the same issue.

This repository is no longer maintained. The project now lives in python-lsp-server (pylsp), which is a maintained fork of python-language-server (pyls).

If you have projects still using pyls, you should update it to use pylsp instead.
