appdirs is deprecated, please replace if with platformdirs fork

python3-appdirs is dead upstream[1] and its Debian maintainer has indicated
that it should not be included in trixie[2]. A recommended replacement is
python3-platformdirs[3], which is a fork of appdirs with a very similar API.

Please migrate from appdirs to platformdirs or some other replacement,
so that appdirs can be removed.

Thanks for opening the issue! I will get on this!

@a-detiste I opened up a PR to replace appdirs and will leave it for a day or so to make sure there aren't objections then I'll merge it! Unless this is more pressing and needs to be merged sooner?

Original bug was in March ;-) No hurry.
