Darn, if this breaks our ability to push to pypi, it won't do. Let's give the editdistance owner a change to patch since you posted an issue, although to be honest I'm not hopeful given they haven't touched the repo in two years...

[joanise]

Maybe we could merge this in for now, and make a note that we have to revert it when we publish the next release? That would let us support Python 3.12 in the meantime, and hopefully we can find a better solution eventually.
I'm going to approve this PR on that premise, and make an issue.
