AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'to_value' and UnitConversionError: '' (dimensionless) and 'electron / s' are not convertible

[sam687]

Hii,
I am getting this error while running the following code.

flc.detrended_flux = flc.flux
flc.detrended_flux_err = flc.flux_err
flc = flc.find_flares()
flc.flares.sort_values(by="ed_rec", ascending=False)

python==3.9.x
astropy=5.3.1

is there any workaround or solution to this. Thanks.
