breakingThe module `opentelemetry.proto.tracing` is an internal module and not intended for direct import. It has been removed or is inaccessible through standard library imports.
fix
Avoid importing from `opentelemetry.proto`. If you were trying to access `NoOpTracer`, import it from `opentelemetry.trace` instead (e.g., `from opentelemetry.trace import NoOpTracer`).
affects: >=1.40.0
breaking`opentelemetry.proto.tracing` module has been removed or refactored. Direct imports from this path will now result in a `ModuleNotFoundError`.
fix
Update imports to use the correct location for `NoOpTracer` (e.g., `from opentelemetry.sdk.trace import NoOpTracer`) or remove references to the internal `proto` modules.
affects: >=1.40.0
