12.10 unity-compiz same problem, different python, tried commenting out 1296 and 1297 they look the same in python3.
# avoid ':' in ELF paths, we use that as separator stack.append(offset.replace(':', '..')) since one is already commented im guessing these are not the correct lines to comment out. Would appreciate a working workaround. thanks.
