Using Plotly.rs in CI with `static_export_wd_download` fails

I have a GitHub Actions CI that has been building with plotly.rs fine for a year, but started failing today. I was building with this:

plotly = { version = "0.13.5", features = ["kaleido", "kaleido_download"] }

which failed due to errors like this:

error[E0412]: cannot find type `Table` in crate `crc`
  --> /Users/bart/.cargo/registry/src/index.crates.io-1949cf8c6b5b557f/lzma-rust2-0.15.3/src/xz.rs:33:33
   |
33 | const CRC32: crc::Crc<u32, crc::Table<16>> =
   |                                 ^^^^^ not found in `crc`

It turns out that under my project I have two versions of crc being used, and somehow (because plotly_kaleido uses it as a build-dependency? Shouldn't cargo handle this fine?) they are colliding:

❯ cargo tree -p crc@2.1.0 -i    
crc v2.1.0
└── lzma-rust2 v0.15.3
    └── zip v7.1.0
        [build-dependencies]
        └── plotly_kaleido v0.13.6
            └── plotly v0.13.5

My project uses sqlx:

❯ cargo tree -p crc@3.4.0 -i    
crc v3.4.0
└── sqlx-core v0.8.6
    ├── sqlx v0.8.6

So instead of fighting plotly_kaleido, it being deprecated, I switched to this:

plotly = { version = "0.14", features = ["static_export_geckodriver", "static_export_wd_download"] }

Which works fine on my local machine, but when I build in GitHub actions on the generic ubuntu runner, I get this

My assumption would be that static_export_wd_download takes care of downloading whatever rendering engine I'd need. Maybe I'm misunderstanding the requirements for not using kaleido, but seems like some sort of bug.

Beginne mit dem plotly_static-Build-Skript und der Feature-Konfiguration für static_export_geckodriver/static_export_wd_download und reproduziere anschließend den Fehler auf dem generischen Ubuntu GitHub Actions Runner. Vergleiche den Erkennungspfad für Browser und Treiber mit dem erfolgreichen lokalen Build; als abgeschlossen gilt die Aufgabe, wenn das dokumentierte CI-Setup den statischen Export ohne den gemeldeten Fehler im Build-Skript abschließt.
