Unknown layer ID -1 error when trying to generate pinion diagram

[f5AFfMhv]

Hi, I get this error when trying following steps:

1. pinion template --board keypad.kicad_pcb --output keypad_pinion_spec.yaml
2. pinion generate rendered --board keypad.kicad_pcb --specification keypad_pinion_spec.yaml

tried 2 different projects and both rendered and plotted options.

Full error

I believe that you managed to install pcbnewTransition version 0.3, meanwhile, the current version of Pinion requires version 0.2

[f5AFfMhv]

I downgraded pcbnewTransition to 0.2 and now facing different error.
It seems that I have installed bunch of modules with unsupported versions. I had to downgrade pcbdraw as well to version 0.9 previously. Not sure how that happened as I used pip install pinion.

Now I get this error:

I don't know what system do you run, but it seems that your libfreetype crashes. Probably in librsvg that converts SVG into bitmap.

Tried reinstalling pinion from git repository, now I have these versions:

PcbDraw            1.0.1
pcbnewTransition   0.2.0
Pinion             0.1.0+34.gfcd0f5a

and I get different error yet again

I also tried older versions of PcbDraw with no luck. I run fedora 37 kernel 6.0.12-300
