gpodder-3.11.1 stack trace with python3-3.12.0

[andbenn]

Using Void Linux, recently both python3 and gpodder were updated..
gpodder-3.11.1_2
python3-3.12.0_1

When I launch, I get this stack trace and gpodder fails to start:

Python 3.12 removed that module, along with at least #1386. Void either doesn't verify packages work with newest Python versions or they missed gPodder. You will need to downgrade Python to 3.11 until we can migrate, and report this to Void Linux.

Thanks for the quick check and reply. I've created an issue for Void Linux at void-linux/void-packages#46683
