Folks,
about a week ago I posted an email regarding bindings to libgnome,
but I never did see the post on the list, just one person's response.
The issue is that the program I use for doing backups, sbackup,
fails
with python 3. The 2 main failures are in regard to the following:
import gnome.ui
and
import gnome.vfs
or more specifically the packages:
gnome-python2-gnomevfs-2.28.1-23.fc29.x86_64
gnome-python2-gnome.x86_64
so my question is how do I get the same features in python 3?
The gnome.vfs failure occurred after I upgraded from F31 to F32. Under
F31 the front end of sbackup fails because of the lack of gnome.ui.
Under F32 the back end now fails due to the lack of gnome.vfs.
Any help is appreciated.
sbackup was packaged for Ubuntu, but stopped working in 2018. In response
to the question "Is sbackup dead?

I do consider that to be true and I wrote this software originally. I have
a vague hope to one day either rewrite this in order to make it
maintainable again or to just make a tool to ease users migrating to other
backup tools, but I have not found the energy for either yet.
