Error in 0.5.7: module 'importlib' has no attribute 'util'

[HelgeEgil]

Thanks for this nice piece of software!
I get the following error when importing dicompylercore 0.5.7 with importlib 1.0.4.

Traceback (most recent call last):
[...]
  File "....\Python39_64\lib\site-packages\dicompylercore\dvhcalc.py", line 15, in <module>
    from dicompylercore.config import skimage_available
  File "C:\....\Python39_64\lib\site-packages\dicompylercore\config.py", line 18, in <module>
    mpl_available = importlib.util.find_spec("matplotlib") is not None
AttributeError: module 'importlib' has no attribute 'util'

If I change line 16 in dicompylercore/config.py from

import importlib

to

import importlib.util

everything loads nicely.

Hello there, thanks for the kind words!

I see that you are using Python 3.9 on Windows. I haven't run into this particular issue. From what I found it might be able to be fixed by upgrading your matplotlib version. Do you mind to report back your version and see if it is 3.7.5 or below?
