Description Sjoerd Mullender 2025-06-04 16:53:02 UTC 
This says it all:

$ python
Python 3.13.3 (main, Apr 22 2025, 00:00:00) [GCC 15.0.1 20250418 (Red Hat 15.0.1-0)] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import exifread
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<python-input-0>", line 1, in <module>
    import exifread
  File "/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/exifread/__init__.py", line 8, in <module>
    from exifread.core.exceptions import ExifNotFound, InvalidExif
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'exifread.core'

There is no submodule core in the exifread package.
This happens since the update to python3-exif 3.3.1-1.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.import exifread
2.
3.
Actual Results:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'exifread.core'

Expected Results:
successful import

Looks like exifread* is required in pyproject.toml includes:

include = ["exifread*"]
