Not bug, change.
Print is now a function in Python 3, i.e. one has to use print(thing)
instead of the previous form.
http://docs.python.org/release/3.0.1/whatsnew/3.0.html

Most likely either change the call in beginning of the script to
python2 instead of python, or roll up the sleeves and start converting
to the new version (python 2to3 should help
http://docs.python.org/library/2to3.html )

Cheers,
