• Iterable seems to be removed from collections: https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.10.html#removed
• This blog post suggest using Iterable from collections.abc

Looks like https://github.com/aviyashchin/pylogit has updated it in the meantime? Many thanks!

As a workaround, you can also run import collections.abc; collections.Iterable = collections.abc.Iterable before importing pylogit.
