Description:
The latest release makes the Post Run actions/setup-python fail systematically with the error message :

Post job cleanup.

        with:
          python-version: 3.11
          architecture: x64
          cache: "pip"

Forcing the use of previous version actions/setup-python@v5.1.1 solves the issue.
