Recently did a refresh of ubuntu 24.04
With no code changes am now getting a *ModuleNotFoundError *for

Relevant code is
import sys
sys.path.append("/home/tim/.local/share/pipx/venvs/youtube-dl/lib/python3.12/site-packages/youtube_dl")

Navigating to
/home/tim/.local/share/pipx/venvs/youtube-dl/lib/python3.12/site-packages/youtube_dl,
I see the following
tim@beelink:~/.local/share/pipx/venvs/youtube-dl/lib/python3.12/site-packages/youtube_dl$ ls
aes.py compat.py extractor jsinterp.py options.py
__pycache__ swfinterp.py utils.py YoutubeDL.py
cache.py downloader __init__.py __main__.py postprocessor
socks.py update.py version.
I should not have appended 'youtube_dl' to the path. I used the content
from /home/tim/.local/share/pipx/shared/lib/python3.12/site-packages/pipx_shared.pth
("/home/tim/.local/share/pipx/shared/lib/python3.12/site-packages") and
added that to /usr/lib/python3.12/sitecustomize.py as appended to sys.path
and it appears to be solved.
FWIW I think youtube_dl has largely been supplanted by the (maintained) 'yt-dlp' these days
