Ahhhh, thanks for opening my eyes. ;-)
May be the clue is to make this python3-ish ...
On the other hand, this might mean that the original packager Mathieu
Malaterre intentionally had created a module. Mathieu, can you please
enlighten us about your intention? The package has a few users
according to popcon but my capacity to keep your leftovers alife is
limited and without some clear statement about your packaging intentions
it is a bit hard to do a sensible Python3 move.
Kind regards
Andreas.
