after an upgrade to ubuntu 23.04 (python 3.11), invoke can no longer import external modules

[rjfred]

I ran into a situation where I had to upgrade invoke to the latest version to get it to run at all, then it choked importing an ansible module. I tried importing the same module at the python repl, and it imported fine. The invoke error was simply that "ansible" is not a package.

Ansible is loaded from a submodule, so it's able to import project modules, but it's having trouble with external modules.

@rjfred can you confirm the versions you are having issues?

I'm sorry, I can't...it was painful enough that I reinstalled to 22.04. There wasn't much to it though. Using standard ubuntu 23.04 with virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper. The python version was 3.11. I tried projects that were around for the upgrade, but also tried creating a fresh project. Under no circumstances was I able to get any recent version of invoke to import any module that was installed in the virtualenv environment. I didn't try importing from modules that were installed via apt. I was able to import any module within my own project.
