This happened to me when changing pendulum version from 2.0 to 3.0 in AWS Lambda (Python 3.10) , I just specified the tz and it worked.

pendulum.now(tz='UTC')

Yeah, it looks like this happens when it tries to default to the local timezone, but the local timezone only has a timezone file without a name.

[kigon001]

so it happens on more platforms than just freebsd? but should it crash from this?

Flexget is using pendulum, don't think I can specify it like you did there, or can I gazpachoking?
