I'm also running Arch Linux and I had the exact same problem, the center of the problem seemed to be the "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'imp'"
After MUCH Googling, here's what I found and what I did to get UVR v5.6 to work.

It has to do with the fact that the last time UVR was updated, Python 3.11 was the latest version of Python and used this 'imp' module, which was deprecated and replaced with 'importlib' in Python 3.12 (the current version). I am not a programmer but I tried everything to replace everywhere I could find in the UVR files where "import imp" was and replace it with "import importlib" but still got the same error. So I installed python311 (aka Python 3.11) from the AUR:

$ yay -S python311
This will install Python 3.11 independently of any other version of Python you might already have installed (iirc).

Here's exactly my steps, beginning after unzipping "ultimatevocalremovergui-master.zip" to ./ultimatevocalremovergui-master and cd'ing into that directory:

This creates a venv (virtual environment) using Python 3.11. I believe using a venv is important, as you will see later.
$ python3.11 -m venv ./venv

If I didn't include this, I would get a different error pertaining to "OSError: could not get source code", this fixed that:
$ venv/bin/pip3.11 install --upgrade setuptools wheel

Then, I kept getting another error about another deprecated package:
"The 'sklearn' PyPI package is deprecated, use 'scikit-learn' rather than 'sklearn' for pip commands."

To fix this, I had to set an environment variable to be used in the venv:
$ nano ./venv/bin/activate

Directly under "deactivate () {" add (without quotes): "unset SKLEARN_ALLOW_DEPRECATED_SKLEARN_PACKAGE_INSTALL": so it should look like:
deactivate () {
unset SKLEARN_ALLOW_DEPRECATED_SKLEARN_PACKAGE_INSTALL
This will unset the environment variable once you deactivate the venv ($ deactivate) which I do when I am done using UVR.

Then while still in nano editing ./venv/bin/activate at the very bottom add the line:
export SKLEARN_ALLOW_DEPRECATED_SKLEARN_PACKAGE_INSTALL="True"

Now you can install the requirements.txt:
$ venv/bin/pip3.11 install -r requirements.txt
(I think you must use pip3.11 because it specifies Python 3.11)

To run UVR, activate the venv:
$ source ./venv/bin/activate

And execute the .py:
$ python3.11 UVR.py
(again I'm pretty sure you have to use python3.11 in the above command or else it will use 3.12 if you have that installed.

I hope this helps!
