Getting deprecation warning with PyPDF2

Getting this error with main, Altough I got it working with commit 423abf0ab2c5a4f03b70687329f4b4e1df211011

This is unrelated to the problem, but I'd recommend using a .gitignore template as well.

(venv) C:\PDFtools>python subset.py
Enter the name of the pdf : input
Enter the slicing : 28-38
