AttributeError: module 'pkgutil' has no attribute 'ImpImporter'. Did you mean: 'zipimporter'?

Earlier I installed some packages like Matplotlib, NumPy, pip (version 23.3.1), wheel (version 0.41.2), etc., and did some programming with those. I used the command C:\Users\UserName>pip list to find the list of packages that I have installed, and I am using Python 3.12.0 (by employing code C:\Users\UserName>py -V).

I need to use pyspedas to analyse some data. I am following the instruction that that I received from site to install the package, with a variation (I am not sure whether it matters or not: I am using py, instead of python). The commands that I use, in the order, are:

py -m venv pyspedas.\pyspedas\Scripts\activatepip install pyspedas

After the last step, I am getting the following output:

After little bit of googling, I came to know that this issues was reported at multiple places, but none for this package. I did install wheel in the new environment as mentioned in the answer here, but the problem still persists.

Instead of setting up a virtual environment, I simply executed the command py -m pip install pyspedas. But I am still getting the error.

What I could gather is that the program has an issue with

Collecting pywavelets (from pyspedas)  Using cached PyWavelets-1.4.1.tar.gz (4.6 MB)  Installing build dependencies ... done

I am using IDLE in Windows 11.
