Program does not work immediately after install

[masoncfrancis]

I tried installing clanvas on Ubuntu WSL (Python 3.10) and Windows (Python 3.11), and neither works after install.

Here is the output when I try to run:

Ubuntu WSL

$ clanvas [school url redacted]

Traceback (most recent call last):

It seems that in util.py one needs to change

from collections import Iterable

to

from collections.abc import Iterable

and also in the upstream cmd2 package one needs to change utils.py, replacing 'collections.Iterable' with 'collections.abc.Iterable' and replacing 'collections.Mapping' with 'collections.abc.Mapping'
