AstroidError: module has no attribute '__path__'

Bug description

Updating to latest pylint 2.15.3 updates astroid to 2.12.10 and error below happens

If I revert to use astroid to 2.12.9 (and pylint 2.15.2) error is gone

When parsing the following file:

import logging
import os
import re
import threading
from celery import Celery
from celery.signals import before_task_publish, task_prerun
from django.conf import settings

pylint crashed with a AstroidError and with the following stacktrace

Traceback (most recent call last):

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Thanks for the report. Duplicate of #7592. We're waiting on a patch release of astroid, but you can pin to astroid main if you need it sooner.
