Comment:
In this case, I think it's better to just patch `gpodder`. The patch seems to be the replacement of a single `import imp` and call to `imp.load_source` in `src/gpodder/extensions.py` with the alternative `load_source` function [recommended by Python](https://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/3.12.html#imp).

If the patch were more extensive, it might be worth carrying this package (even though upstream says not to use it and `imp` has been deprecated for nine years). I also think it would be more tolerable as a build dependency for some complex package than as a runtime dependency.
