multi_extract no function clause matching "def to_charlist(string) when is_binary(string)"

[kbrown-axio]

I'm seeing an unexpected behavior with a particular spreadsheet. Will updated as I discover possible if there is anything particular about this spreadsheet.

iex(3)> {:ok, tid} = Xlsxir.multi_extract(xlsx_file)
** (FunctionClauseError) no function clause matching in String.to_charlist/1

The following arguments were given to String.to_charlist/1:

    # 1
    %Xlsxir.XlsxFile{
      worksheet_xml_files: [
        %Xlsxir.XmlFile{

          path: nil,
          content: "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\" ...

Update: Same behavior on new spreadsheet with 2 cells. So could be a dependency or environmental problem. 🤷

Update: "path: nil" looks sus especially given:
