problem with tensorflow 2.10 and rstudio

[Fabien]

Hi, i can't manage to make tensorfow work inside Rstudio in windows 11
i have a r-tensorflow conda environment with tensorflow 2.10 working
if i use R directly without Rstudio i can load keras and tensorflow packages and it works, but when i use rstudio it does not work. The error i have is

library(tensorflow)
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘tensorflow’:
.onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'tensorflow', details:
call: py_module_import(module, convert = convert)
error: NameError: name 'base_events' is not defined
Run reticulate::py_last_error() for details.

reticulate:::py_last_error()

@Fabien

NameError: name 'base_events' is not defined

of so it seems that the asyncio package can't be loaded by rstudio and consequently tensorflow can t be imported in Rstudio :
import("asyncio")
Error in py_module_import(module, convert = convert) :
NameError: name 'base_events' is not defined
Run reticulate::py_last_error() for details.

but if i import it from R directly the import works so it seems rstudio related.
can someone help on this problem ?
Thank you very much !

Thank you for the report! This has been fixed in the development version of reticulate. Please install it with:

pak::pak("rstudio/reticulate")

@t-kalinowski

pak::pak("rstudio/reticulate")

it works now ! Thank you sooo much !!!
