pip ImportError: cannot import name 'Mapping' from 'collections'

There appear to be conflicting libraries of python that pip is trying to access, as you can see with the following error:

[root@fedora user]# pip

    from collections import Mapping
ImportError: cannot import name 'Mapping' from 'collections' (/usr/lib64/python3.10/collections/__init__.py)

How can I fix this to be able to use pip? I have already tried dnf reinstall python and dnf reinstall python3 and dnf remove python3-pip, dnf install python3-pip.

Open the File: "/usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/pip/_vendor/html5lib/_trie/_base.py", and at line 3 instead of

from collections import Mapping

add .abc after collections

from collections.abc import Mapping

I fixed this by removing all pip folders in /usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages
