I have never used bleachbit, but I took a look at this program to see if it would be a simple matter to convert it to python3. It won't. The program uses the python2 and gtk2 module pygtk. To convert it to python3, the entire program would have to be rewritten to use gtk3 for python3. gtk2 and gtk3 don't have the same api calls, so someone with domain knowledge of gtk2 and gtk3 would have to do this (I don't have that knowledge). It looks like the command line version doesn't use the gtk module, only the gui version. So it probably would be fairly simple to convert the program to a python3 version that only worked via the command line by stripping all the gui code. As long as the other modules it uses to do its actual function are compatible with python3. I didn't check that deeply. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
