It would help a lot to keep the python hooks both python2.7 (precise) and python3 (quantal+) for the upgrade case where your hook maybe run with either pythons.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Python/3 Most of the time it's easy to accomplish with: from __future__ import print_function Which is valid in both python2.6+ and python3. Also note: Consider passing universal_newlines=True to subprocess.Popen() and friends to get text output directly. Which nicely helps to deal with unicode vs bytes in python3 vs python2 cases. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1013171 Title: Many package hooks not ported to python3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/1013171/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
