  • Bug#1107989: python3-boto3: Unusable: tries to import removed 'imp'

    From Sean Whitton@21:1/5 to All on Wed Jun 18 16:40:01 2025
    Package: python3-boto3
    Version: 1.37.9-1
    Severity: serious

    Dear maintainer,

    Currently you can't import boto because it tried to import 'imp', which
    was removed from core Python.

    One can Depends on python3-zombie-imp to get things working again

    Greetings





    ~~A particularly mischievous act of necromancy. That is,~~ A copy of
    the `imp` module that was removed in Python 3.12.

    Don't use this, it'll probably trick and bite you.
