I would expect them to move telnetlib to a separate, unsupported repo that you can then import. Even if they don’t, from a cursory view, it seems it’s a pure python library (https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/Lib/telnetlib.py https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/Lib/telnetlib.py). If so, can’t you copy the current code into your project? You would take on the burden of supporting it, but looking at https://github.com/python/cpython/commits/main/Lib/telnetlib.py https://github.com/python/cpython/commits/main/Lib/telnetlib..., that doesn’t seem to be much of a burden.
