Description

Another python sdk error on mac:
python sdk 0.7.2 released by macos-12, run on macos 12.1 python 3.8.2
```
ImportError: dlopen(...sdk.so, 0x0002): symbol not found in flat namespace '_PyCMethod_New'
```

I think 3.8.2 is old, 3.8.10 or 3.9?
3.9 works. 3.8.x haven't been test
Memo it.

Research direction

The issue mentions a Python SDK import error on macOS related to a missing symbol '_PyCMethod_New'. Start by examining the SDK build process for macOS, particularly the Python C extension linking. Check the Python version compatibility (3.8.2 vs 3.8.10/3.9) and the build scripts. Look for existing tests or CI configurations that specify Python versions. Verify the fix by building the SDK with the affected Python version and running the import test.
