It doesn't happen using the Standalone Installer (both v2 and v1) and the OSGeo4W v1 Network Installer. See https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues/44225#issuecomment-882073892 for more details. The owslib 0.21.0 is the first owslib version using {{{iter()}}} instead of {{{getiterator()}}} in order to properly work with Python 3.9. https://github.com/geopython/OWSLib/pull/720 The latest version of owslib is 0.24.1.",defect,closed,major,Package,,fixed,,
