module 'configparser' has no attribute 'SafeConfigParser'

[sachinbhoi29]

Describe the bug When attempting to install pyfolio (version 0.9.2), I encounter an error during the wheel building process. The error occurs due to an AttributeError related to the use of SafeConfigParser in the versioneer.py file, which is not compatible with Python 3.12. The error suggests replacing SafeConfigParser with RawConfigParser as the former was deprecated in Python 3.12.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Create a virtual environment using Python 3.12. Run the command pip install pyfolio or pip install alphapy (which depends on pyfolio). See the error message during the wheel building process. Expected behavior The package should install successfully without errors related to SafeConfigParser.

  [Rest of the error message truncated for brevity]

Additional context

The error is caused because SafeConfigParser was removed in Python 3.12 and replaced by RawConfigParser. Updating the code to use RawConfigParser should resolve the issue.
