We need to support python 3.x for the future, python 2 will reach EOL in 2 years, and distros are starting to look to a python 3 by default future. We will continue to support python 2.7 as long as the autotools build remains and as long as the scons build remains (unless someone ports it to 2.7), but python 2.6 is not supported. Please install or update to python 2.7 for scons and autotools builds. |

On Python 2, the read() method of a file object opened in mode 'r' will return byte strings, while on Python 3 it will return unicode strings. Explicitly specifying the binary mode ('rb') then decoding the byte string means we always handle unicode strings on both Python 2 and 3. Which in turns means all re.match(line) will return unicode strings as well. If we also make expandCString return unicode strings, we don't need the call to the unicode() constructor any more. We were using the ugettext() method because it always returns unicode strings in Python 2, contrarily to the gettext() one which returns byte strings. The ugettext() method doesn't exist on Python 3, so we must use the right method on each version of Python. The last hurdles are that Python 3 doesn't let us concatenate unicode and byte strings directly, and that Python 2's stdout wants encoded byte strings while Python 3's want unicode strings. With these changes, the script gives the same output on both Python 2 and 3. Signed-off-by: Mathieu Bridon <bochecha@daitauha.fr> Reviewed-by: Dylan Baker <dylan@pnwbakers.com>
