Python 3.12 compatibility

[bieniu]

Is there a plan to make a package compatible with Python 3.12?

I had a look and the first obstacle seems to be that the asyncio an asynsock transports are heavily grafted on the asyncore implementation. Support for asyncore was dropped in python 3.12 so this needs quite some rewriting I'm afraid.

Hello

stumbling on this issue, there could be an easy way to work around this by using the pyasyncore Pypi package. I don't use pysnmp myself so I did not try it out for you, sorry.

@gpatel-fr The question is whether people should rely on that package.

Nobody is actually maintaining that pyasyncore (except dumping the old files into it), so whatever bad happens the fire is on others, not you, right?

You could ask yourself another question: is answering like this to someone trying to help an efficient way of showing you as a thoroughly unpleasant character ?

@gpatel-fr You don't actually help, but copied some random information here. Don't overreact when people like me pointed out the fact that you don't like.
