29\f1\b [UPDATE: fixed in macOS 13.4] macOS 13 Ventura users
30\f0\b0 :  Due to an issue with the macOS
31\f1\b Installer
32\f0\b0  app in macOS 13 Ventura updates prior to macOS 13.4, installation of some third-party packages including this Python package may fail with a vague
33\f1\b "The installer encountered an error"
34\f0\b0  message if the
35\f1\b Installer
36\f0\b0  app does not have permission to access the folder containing the downloaded installer file, typically in the
37\f1\b Downloads
38\f0\b0  folder. Go to
39\f1\b System Settings
40\f0\b0  ->
41\f1\b Privacy & Security
42\f0\b0  ->
43\f1\b Files and Folders
44\f0\b0 , then click the mark in front of
45\f1\b Installer
46\f0\b0  to expand, and enable
47\f1\b Downloads Folder
48\f0\b0  by moving the toggle to the right. See {\field{\*\fldinst{HYPERLINK "https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/103207"}}{\fldrslt https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/103207}} for up-to-date information on this issue.  This problem has been resolved in macOS 13.4.\
