Description
File ".../venvserver/lib/python3.12/site-packages/tensorflow_probability/python/internal/backend/jax/ops.py", line 681, in <module>
jax.interpreters.xla.pytype_aval_mappings[onp.ndarray])
...
AttributeError: jax.interpreters.xla.pytype_aval_mappings was deprecated in JAX v0.5.0 and removed in JAX v0.7.0. jax.core.pytype_aval_mappings can be used as a replacement in most cases.
Seems like TFP for JAX was using deprecated features that are removed in the recent JAX release v0.7.0

Research direction
Start in tensorflow_probability/python/internal/backend/jax/ops.py around line 681, where the traceback shows the removed JAX mapping is accessed. Check the surrounding JAX backend usage and existing compatibility coverage, then verify that TensorFlow Probability imports and operates with JAX 0.7 without this AttributeError.
