Hi everyone,

I'm using arch linux and tried to install jbrout-svn from AUR (v 0.3.300).
It get installed but did not launch. Here's the message :

File "/usr/lib/jbrout/jbrout.py", line 27
print "jbrout need python2.4 or +"
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

And here's the dependencies
- pygtk
- subversion
- python 3.2.2
- python-lxml 2.3.1
- pil
- fbida 2.08
- jhead 2.90
- pyexiv2 0.3.2
- perl-exiftool 8.70

IIRC jhead is no more needed.

I've also tried to install manually the dependencies and pull the last
svn version but i've got the same message.

Any clue to solve this ?
Thanks

Hi,

I've found the solution here :
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=25549

According to the author "jBrout doesn't seem to like Python 3"
The solution was to modify /usr/bin/jbrout and replace python with python2

Sure, jbrout is not python3 compliant yet ;-)

Just out of curiosity, is this planned? I know python 3 is different
from python 2, so I guess switching to 3 or sticking to 2 are both
worth considering.

I'd like to do that ... migrate to GTK3 & python3
AFAIK, the next ubuntu 12.04(LTS) will be python3 (no ?) (with python2.X available)

Could you please consider adding a test ?
For me, as a non-programmer, python 3.2.2 was higher than python 2.7.2 .
I wasn't aware of the incompatibility between both.

"They" decided that some things in python 2 had to be changed, which
means that python 2 code is often incompatible with python 3

AFAIK ... if you install the deb (or rpm) version, it create a script to run jbrout, which should only work with python2.X.

but it could be a good idea, for pepole installing from source, sure ...

We also need to wait for pyexiv2 (the image data manipulation library) to be updated to python 3, the progress of this can be followed at the following bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/pyexiv2/+bug/824440
