Hello,

Recent upgrade to astropy 6.0.1 (within python 3.9.21) has resulted in the following error when I `from reproject import reproject_interp`:

ImportError: cannot import name ‘update\_default\_config’ from ‘astropy.config.configuration’ (/Users/jmangum/anaconda3/envs/python39/lib/python3.9/site-packages/astropy/config/configuration.py)

Have not figured a workaround for this. My conda packages are up-to-date. Thanks.
