Error "buffer source array is read-only" when using unique() on df loaded with feather

[eamag]

Code Sample, a copy-pastable example if possible

import pandas as pd
import feather

df1 = pd.DataFrame([1,2,3,1,2,4], columns=['a'])
df1.a = df1.a.astype('category')
print(df1.a.unique())

df1.to_feather('a.feather')
df1 = feather.read_dataframe('a.feather')
df1.a.unique()

What version of pandas? This works for me on master (thats' why we ask you to fill out the issue template).

This is fixed by #21688 which is not in a released version yet.

Great, thanks @xhochy.
