resolves #9876
Problem
Following PEP8 the Python 2 library
Queue
was renamed toqueue
in Python 3. Our try/except logic was to ensure theEmpty
class was imported without error when running Python 2. Python 2 went EOL January 1st, 2020 and we haven't supported Python 2 in a very long time. As such, it seems past time to remove this relic.Solution
Delete the legacy try/except code that is no longer needed
