Also important to Report that the python env ist completely clean and that the code works in Google colab but i need it to be able to run in local

Thanks, we should have caught this (seems to be coming from a change at the NCBI end though). Can you try pulling from the master branch and retry?

pip install git+https:://github.com/saketkc/pysradb

Works for me, thanks!

Hi. Thanks for fixing this problem. We also encountered it just today and wanted to report this..

Not neccessary at this point anymore. But here's our solution: it seems like xmltodict 0.13.0 is causing the problem. Downgrading it to 0.12.0 solved it for us.

edit: xmltodict 0.13.0 uses dict instead of OrderedDict now (as reported in the issue tracker of xmltodict)

Thanks. This should now be fixed in v.1.4.
