My quick and dirty fix is to replace "#! /usr/bin/python3"
by "#! /usr/bin/python2"

This makes wifi-radar working again.
Ahh, yes. That's the nice, quick way of making it work. I
was focusing on how to fix it properly at the package level
and forgetting the importance of having something which
works for the end user. :)
The package dropped the "Requires: pygtk2", so if you're
deploying to any new systems you'd want to make sure that's
installed as well, in case nothing else pulls it in.
