Even, I was not setting the environment variable correctly on conda. It
needs to be

conda env config vars set USE_PATH_FOR_GDAL_PYTHON=YES

and then I already get

conda env config vars listUSE_PATH_FOR_GDAL_PYTHON = YES

So, the error message had changed

python demo.pyTraceback (most recent call last):  File "demo.py", line
