Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

Well, basically some sys attributes (including meta_path) are cleaned during 
shutdown, so if some code executes afterwards and tries to import something, 
importlib will complain that meta_path is empty.

Unless the warning is genuinely useful, I would suggest simply removing it.

Printing warnings during import can also degenerate into an infinite recursion, 
if printing the warning needs to import a module, for example:

./python -Wa -c "import sys; sys.meta_path = None; import logging"
