[Python] PBKDF2() got an unexpected keyword argument 'hmac_hash_module'

I am attempting to derive AES keys using PBKDF2 from PyCryptoDome using the example code from PyCryptoDome documentation, shown below:

from Crypto.Protocol.KDF import PBKDF2
from Crypto.Hash import SHA512
from Crypto.Random import get_random_bytes

password = b'my super secret'
salt = get_random_bytes(16)
keys = PBKDF2(password, salt, 64, count=1000000, hmac_hash_module=SHA512)
key1 = keys[:32]
key2 = keys[32:]


When I run this, I get the error:

keys = PBKDF2(password, salt, 64, count=1000, hmac_hash_module="SHA512")
TypeError: PBKDF2() got an unexpected keyword argument 'hmac_hash_module'


But when I run the code without the hmac_hash_module argument, it runs without error. Does anyone know why I can't specify this argument?
