Package: python-minimal
Version: 2.7.13-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
After setting /usr/bin/python to point to python3 via alternatives the
next update of debconf failed with:
File "/usr/bin/pyclean", line 63
except (IOError, OSError), e:
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
and
File "/usr/bin/pycompile", line 35, in <module>
from debpython.version import SUPPORTED, debsorted, vrepr, \
File "/usr/share/python/debpython/version.py", line 24, in <module>
from ConfigParser import SafeConfigParser
ImportError: No module named 'ConfigParser'
pyversions also fails with:
File "/usr/bin/pyversions", line 20
except IOError, msg:
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Changing the first line of all scripts to
#! /usr/bin/python2
helped. They are apparently not compatible with python3.
Best regards,
Matthias
