For now this is in a python3 branch, and I am not asking it be
integrated into upstream tuna, I'm just sharing it with everyone.
However, Fedora is now a python3 by default system, and RedHat 8
requires /usr/bin/python3
We have limited resources so, I envision for the future that we will
use
python3 by default. People can still use an older version if they require
tuna for python2 distributions.
After a period of making python3 correctly, we could start to take
patches
that make the same code work correctly for both python3 and python2, but
my focus now is python3.
I'd do it differently, but you're the one doing the work :-)
And in the end you haven't answered my question, is this strictly
needed? I'm talking about just this single patch :-)
I'm not saying we should do a lot of work to make it work with python2,
I'm just curious if that is the case.
