According to
https://www.reddit.com/r/kodi/comments/1coowz1/crash_in_pyimport_appendinittab_pyimport/?rdt=36220
this is a regression with python 3.12. If I move back to 3.11 the problem
disappears.
According to the reddit link the problem has been fixed with kodi 21. Looking
at the code in git this could be commit
1bfa3ef9e3b6d25d581bb1f48f6a740fca1c06cf.
