ReportLab Package in ArcGIS Pro 3.3.0

Question

To All ArcGIS Pro Users:

I am trying to run a python script that requires ReportLab.  I realize that ReportLab is not a python package included by default, so I created a clone.  Now when I create the clone, I cannot find ReportLab as an additional python package with Pro 3.3.0 even though I can find ReportLab with previous versions of Pro (e.g. Pro 3.2.x).

Has anyone else encountered this issue?

If so, is the only current solution to downgrade ArcGIS Pro back to Pro 3.2.x?

Any help or hints are greatly appreciated.  Thanks in Advance

did you try conda rather than the package manager?

as shown in the link's other pages

conda install reportlab

or

conda install esri::reportlab

if you want the actual version

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(arcgispro-py3) C:\arc_pro\bin\Python\envs\arcgispro-py3>activate spyarc
Current directory is another environment, changing directory to active environment.
