spaCy 4 hasn't been released. 4.0.0.dev{1,2} have been yanked,
questioning the stability. More importantly, 4.0.0.dev3 was published
2024-04-22 while the normal 3.8.7 is newer, being published 2025-05-23,
a whole year later. The outdated 2024 spaCy depends on an outdated
thinc, which depends on an outdated blis whose build fails on Python
3.13.
I fixed this by restricting spaCy to stable 3.x versions. The spaCy 4
apparently wasn't even being used in the final installation that Kokoro
sees, somehow only appearing in a misconfigured build step.
