No module named dateutil

This is the first time in a long time I install Ginga on a fresh environment. Now I use Python 3.12. When I try to test #1084 , I ran into a different problem:

ginga\ginga\rv\plugins\Drawing.py", line 36, in <module>
    from dateutil import tz
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dateutil'

ginga/ginga/rv/plugins/Drawing.py

Line 36 in 8eb5aaf

from dateutil import tz

Is dateutil an undeclared dependency? It didn't get installed automatically when I installed Ginga.

I thought that dateutil was part of the standard library, but I guess that it is not. I've fixed this in commit bc2606d.

dateutil was added to deal with a deprecation of a couple of API calls in recent versions (python 3.12?) of datetime.

@pllim, can you confirm in your python 3.12 envt and close this if fixed? Tnx!

Yes, Ginga now pulls in the extra dependency and error is gone. Thanks!
