Action breaks with python 3.12 - clyent/anaconda-client

[MridulS]

Anaconda client uses clyent which uses imp. The imp module has been removed from python 3.12

The clyent package exists in something called the graveyard https://github.com/anaconda-graveyard/clyent which doesn't sound nice.

Any traceback ? SO we can see what need to be fixed where ?

Copy pasting as logs are not kept forever:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Opened upstream anaconda/anaconda-client#689

[dalcinl]

Folks, looks like that import imp line is stale, the imp module is not used anywhere in the package. Maybe this can be fixed by patching sources and bumping the build number in the conda-forge/clyent-feedstock repo to get a new fresh package that works in Python 3.12 (assuming there are no other incompatibilities, of course).

@Carreau This is an example of why I opened PR #32

[matthewfeickert]

@MridulS @jarrodmillman now that PR #32 has been merged, can you please trigger a workflow dispatch run of networkx's nightly pipeline?

If that passes as I would expect now then I will close this Issue and make a 0.2.0 release.

Also thank you for opening this Issue, as it needed to get fixed, and anaconda/anaconda-client#689 is going to be generically useful.

works now :) Thanks!
