Can't get weechat-matrix working (bad python installation?)

Firstly, I'm not sure why "community/weechat-matrix" doesn't exist in my pacman repos in my case (original repo weechat-matrix). I had to revert to the aur package. Then installing it and "/script load matrix.py inside weechat results in:

I don't usually mess with python related stuff, so usually let pacman take care of it for software I use that depends on the python interpreter or libraries. Looking up on the web to avail, I'm pretty clueless as to what is here wrong and as to where I should look for a fix.

The error message directs to this issue https://github.com/PyO3/pyo3/issues/576 back from 2019; then to look further up to an open tracking thread from 2023.

I don't know what PyO3 is and how it's tied to the system. It mentions a "ImportError being raised if a module using PyO3 is initialized more than once per interpreter process" in the issue thread. It thus seems to me that something on my system with a running python interpreter process is using pyo3 but I'm not sure where to find what's running it and verify if that is indeed the case.

I might also assume my python library installation is somehow broken or outdated. But then, if this is something still not supported, how does other arch users use weechat-matrix at all?
