Sops: Traceback: AttributeError: 'EntryPoint' object has no attribute 'resolve'

I've tried decrypting a file using both sops version 1.10 (latest) and earlier version 1.4, but getting the following traceback. Perhaps recent dependency upgrade broke something?

$ sops -d /tmp/my_config.xml.ENC > config.xml
Traceback (most recent call last):

hmm, looks like you have most versions already pinned in requirements.txt so not sure what's going on here.

Let me guess: You're on OSX El Capitan? -> https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/issues/2838

Ubuntu linux

Odd. Try downgrading cryptography maybe? pip install cryptography==1.2.1

Yep, downgrading to cryptography 1.2.1 fixed it. Thank you!
