Thanks for the info. I'm looking at making things better but I think to do so 
I'll want to move my html package to html.format using the new package 
namespace support in Python 3.3 - an idea I'll test out once 3.3rc1 is released.

Bug#685302: Installing html package with Python 3

2012-08-19 Thread Russel Winder 
Richard,

On Debian Unstable I am trying to install the html package for Python 3.
For Python 2, I did a pip install html and it worked fine. Using
pip-3.2 install html I got an error from the execution of the
setup.py. I sent in a bug report but then thought actually it is not a
packaging problem, something Jakub replied with to my bug report. I
tried downloading the tarball and installing but got the same problem.

  File /root/build/html/setup.py, line 12, in module

long_description = __doc__.decode('utf8'),

AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'decode'

__doc__ is of type str which has a method decode in Python 2, but decode
is a method on bytearray in Python 3. I removed the decode call and it
installed fine with Python 3.

Perhaps there needs to be a Python 2 / Python difference in the setup.py
file?

Thanks.

Richard,

Of course there is then a deeper problem, Python 3 has an html package
in the standard distribution, at least on Debian Unstable. :-(
