ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'imp' when installing with pip

[pepal00]

Hello,
I installed droopescan with pip inside a venv. When tried to run it I get the error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'imp'. I tried to install pystache==0.5.4 as recommended in this comment issue #72 but that installation errors with

      Warning: 'classifiers' should be a list, got type 'tuple'
      error in pystache setup command: use_2to3 is invalid.

Digging a bit on that, it seems like Python 3.12 has removed support for the imp library, so I think the module will need replaced with importlib?

• OS & installation method
  Kali 6.11.2-1kali1 (2024-10-15) rolling, installed via pip
  Python 3.12.7

I fixed this by bumping the version of cement up and adding setuptools in setup.py:

install_requires=[
        'cement>=2.10,<2.10.99',
        'setuptools',
        'requests',
        'pystache',
    ],

Then a pip install requirements and it worked.

The version currently used (2.6) has imp which is where my error was coming from. The fix happened in 2.10. As a note, I did try v3 but it had errors and I didn't want to deal with those so I stuck with 2.10.14.

Yes, Python 3.12+ does not support the 'imp'. It works in the range of Python 3.8 ~ 3.11, maybe.

Any solution?
