After updating to pyhon3.12 in trixie, egt started to corrupt my project-files with warnings

/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/kitchen/text/converters.py:800: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\*'
  '''Return a byte :class:`bytes` encoded so it is valid inside of any xml
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/kitchen/text/converters.py:832: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\*'
  '''Decode a string encoded using :func:`bytes_to_xml`

I just investigated and the culprit is kitchen (see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1076949).

Kitchen is used by taskw in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/taskw/warrior.py in case of errors.

For my own use I have just dropped the dependency on kitchen in that file. Patch attached

(This issue is intended as note in case others hit the same problem.)

It could be that the fix or approach in #14 could help you here

nchiapol commented

the taskw package has dropped the dependency on kitchen as well (with 2.0.0-3 from 29 Aug 2024)

So no local patch needed anymore.
I am closing this issue.
