    # Open the pickle using latin1 encoding
    with open(old_pkl, "rb") as f:

    # Re-save as Python 3 pickle
    with open(new_pkl, "wb") as outfile:

    convert(args.infile)

In my case I have to convert a joblib jl saved file, how to adapt the script for joblib?
I have tried to map b'ObjectType' but it seems it is not enough:

import os
import joblib
import dill

dill._dill._reverse_typemap["ObjectType"] = object

DATA_PATH = '/root'

tfidf_vectorizer, _ = joblib.load(os.path.join(DATA_PATH,'nmf_topic_model/tfidf_mpd.jl'))
nmf_model, _ = joblib.load(os.path.join(DATA_PATH,'nmf_topic_model/nmf_mpd.jl'))

I have tried to tap the joblib file .../joblib/numpy_pickle.py so that the class NumpyUnpickler has a ovverride load method like

    def load(self):
        eggs = pickle.load(self.file_handle, encoding='latin1')
        return eggs

and I have put

import dill
dill._dill._reverse_typemap["ObjectType"] = object

Another attempt was to add the encoding directly in the NumpyUnpickler init:

def __init__(self, filename, file_handle, mmap_mode=None):
     Unpickler.__init__(self, self.file_handle, encoding="latin1")
