Research direction

The report names no source files or tests. Reproduce the failure after upgrading to Ubuntu 23.04 with Python 3.11, compare importing the Ansible module in a Python REPL with importing it through Invoke's submodule, and trace the module-loading entry point. Done means external modules import successfully through Invoke without being reported as non-packages.

Description

I ran into a situation where I had to upgrade invoke to the latest version to get it to run at all, then it choked importing an ansible module. I tried importing the same module at the python repl, and it imported fine. The invoke error was simply that "ansible" is not a package.

Ansible is loaded from a submodule, so it's able to import project modules, but it's having trouble with external modules.
