macos – Error installing python >3.9 with conda on M1 Mac

So, I have this really annoying issue since I reinstalled conda I am not able to create new environments with a python version greater than 3.9.

I am currently running macOS Sonoma, and I checked that the platform is set to osx-arm64 for conda.

conda create -n env python=3.11

I have tested it for conda 23.9.0/23.10.0 and 23.11.0 and basically everywhere I get the error.

Solving environment: failed

LibMambaUnsatisfiableError: Encountered problems while solving:
  - nothing provides tzdata needed by python-3.11.0-h559f36b_0_cpython

Could not solve for environment specs
The following package could not be installed
└─ python 3.11**  is not installable because it requires
   └─ tzdata, which does not exist (perhaps a missing channel).

Any suggestions appreciated!
