Hi Maintainer

apt-xapian-index fails when Python 3.12 is the default.

$ axi-cache info
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/axi-cache", line 864, in <module>
sys.exit(ui.perform())
^^^^^^^^^^^^
File "/usr/bin/axi-cache", line 855, in perform
return f(self.args)
^^^^^^^^^^^^
File "/usr/bin/axi-cache", line 411, in do_info
import axi.indexer
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/axi/indexer.py", line 27, in <module>
import imp
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'imp'

The patch below was applied in Ubuntu.

Regards
Graham
