Additional context

File "/tmp/pip-install-d3va927h/matplotlib_e523aa53e62047199068608501c29b62/versioneer.py", line 401, in get_config_from_root
          parser = configparser.SafeConfigParser()
                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
      AttributeError: module 'configparser' has no attribute 'SafeConfigParser'. Did you mean: 'RawConfigParser'?

in python 3.12 SafeConfigParser no longer exists.

Solution

• Use ConfigParser instead.
• Or downgrade to python 3.11
  • change project docs to reflect that python version needs to be below 3.12
