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.
Can be summoned by import zombie_imp.
On Python versions where imp was banished, reanimate it using import imp.
It promises (with a sneer) to be the same as before.
Some functionality that was severed from pkgutil is interred
in zombie_imp.pkgutil, ready for reattachment:
ImpImporterImpLoader
You want to help it? Think you'll be rewarded? Great! It loves gullible brains.
Seriously, run!
Find a project that needs this and port that to importlib.
