 - Fixed the installation of ruamel.yaml if not already present.
+- Limit the ruamel.yaml version to less than 0.18.0, because newer versions are completely changed so will need more work to fix. Note that if you already have a newer version of ruamel.yaml in the python that you are using, it is advised to run the following command to remove it, after which running this script will reinstall a working version: 
+
+```
+/path/to/your/python -m pip uninstall ruamel.yaml

+The python `ruamel.yaml` module is required, which is not installed by default on Macs. The version of ruamel.yaml currently must be lower than 0.18.0. You can install it with `pip`, which you may also need to install first. A few other things need to be updated for ruamel to install:
 
 ```bash
 python -m ensurepip --user
-python -m pip install -U pip setuptools wheel ruamel.yaml --user
+python -m pip install -U pip setuptools wheel ruamel.yaml<0.18.0 --user
 ```
 
 If you do not pre-install `ruamel.yaml`, the script will do it for you.
