Hi guys,
I'm trying to run a python script that requires yfinance. This is the
error I'm getting:

I thought about subing in Linux for the uname but I want something that
is more general. This must have happened before. Is there a way to
search the cygwin mail archives? Delorie seems to out of commission.
What should I do?
TIA.
