Package: flake8 Version: 3.2.1-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
flake8 switched to be a python3 package, so now the `flake8` program runs under py3k, that means it cannot check python2 code anymore: f.e. if you run it against a python2 script containing a `print` statement, flake8 generates a `E999 SyntaxError: invalid syntax` error. there is no equivalent flake8-py2 tool, so perfectly valid python2 code cannot be checked with flake8 unless you explicitly call `python /usr/bin/flake8 /path/to/python2/code.py` which is not user friendly -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.0.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages flake8 depends on: ii python3 3.5.1-1 ii python3-flake8 3.2.1-1 ii python3-pkg-resources 17.0-1 flake8 recommends no packages. flake8 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
