I am trying to run my program which uses various dependencies, but since upgrading to Python 3.10 this does not work anymore. When I run "python3" in the terminal and from there import my dependencies I get an error:
ImportError: cannot import name 'Mapping' from 'collections' (/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.10/lib/python3.10/collections/__init__.py)
This seems to be a general problem, but here is the traceback of my specific case:

Change:
from collections import Mapping
to
from collections.abc import Mapping
