Using pyinstaller to compile plotly version 6.1.0 gives an error:

Research direction

Use the reported test_build.py with Plotly 6.1.0 and PyInstaller to reproduce the failure. Trace the import path through plotly/express/init.py, plotly/express/_imshow.py, plotly/express/_core.py, and plotly/graph_objs/init.py. Done means the packaged test starts without ModuleNotFoundError for plotly.graph_objs._scatter.
