Error in GDC tool kit

I am trying to fetch the clinical information data (TSV file format) of >1000 files from TCGA. I have used GDC-client tool kit But it is showing the below error.

/tmp/_MEIkaerqR/cryptography/hazmat/primitives/constant_time.py:26: CryptographyDeprecationWarning: Support for your Python version is deprecated. The next version of cryptography will remove support. Please upgrade to a 2.7.x release that supports hmac.compare_digest as soon as possible.

I have updated the python version too.My OS is Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS. Please help me to solve this issue. Is there any other possible way to download the multiple file from TCGA rather than GDC-client tool kit?

Already reported. but didnt get their response

I see - thanks. What is the output of python --version ?

Perhaps install Python 2.7.x in a conda environment and run the program from there?
