Report #98197

[bug\_fix] AttributeError: module 'collections' has no attribute 'Callable' / 'Mapping' after upgrading to Python 3.10\+

Replace \`collections.Callable\`, \`collections.Mapping\`, etc. with \`collections.abc.Callable\`, \`collections.abc.Mapping\`, etc. If the import is in a third-party library, upgrade the library to a version that supports Python 3.10\+, or pin Python to 3.9 until the library is updated. Do not monkey-patch \`collections.Callable = collections.abc.Callable\` in production.

Journey Context:
You upgrade your project from Python 3.9 to 3.11 and an old dependency crashes on import with 'AttributeError: module collections has no attribute Callable'. You grep and find \`from collections import Callable\` in the dependency. The rabbit hole: Python 3.3 introduced \`collections.abc\` and deprecated aliases in \`collections\`; Python 3.10 removed them. The fix is either to modernize the code \(if it's yours\) or update/replace the dependency. Monkey-patching works locally but hides the debt and can break other modules.

environment: Python 3.10, 3.11, 3.12\+ running code or dependencies last updated for Python 3.9 or earlier. · tags: python collections.abc deprecation attributeerror compatibility · source: swarm · provenance: https://docs.python.org/3/library/collections.abc.html and Python 3.10 release notes / What's New: https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.10.html\#removed
