configparser.MissingSectionHeaderError: File contains no section headers.

I encountered a very strange problem. I just used the following code to import pydantic_settings.

from pydantic_settings import BaseSettings
print("hello world")

But the following error was displayed:

    raise MissingSectionHeaderError(fpname, lineno, line)
configparser.MissingSectionHeaderError: File contains no section headers.

I wanted to look from the bottom to find out which f caused it and what it was. when I added print and reran it, the code was correct.

I couldn't reproduce the problem. can you try it in a fresh env?
