DeprecationWarning: the imp module is deprecated in favour of importlib; see the module's documentation for alternative uses

It looks like imp module is still used in
.../pyutilib/misc/import_file.py on line 11

I noticed this while using pytest, with importing io, sys, & pyomo

Let me know if more details are required - I would put more, but this seems descriptive enough for this small warning.

[egbuck]

imp.find_module() and imp.load_source() - these appear to be the only times imp is used throughout this file, if that helps

Thanks for reporting this. I'm looking into converting these.

This issue seems to be still open. pyutilib does not work with Python 3.12 as the imp module has been deprecated.
