is ubertooth python3 compatibly?

[sandrotosi]

Hello,
i couldnt find anywhere if ubertooth is python3 compatible.

In debian we are trying to remove python2 and ubertooth is one of the only 2 packages keeping pyside2 in the archive, so it would be extremely welcome if we could have a py3k compatible version of ubertooth in the near future.

thanks for considering!

Looking into this right now. Is there a timeline by which this change should occur? Also, are you the Ubertooth package maintainer on Debian?

thanks a lot Mike, much appreciated! as it always goes, the sooner the better :)
I'm not Ubertooth maintainer for debian, i'm part of a larger group of people working to remove python2 from the distribution

I'm maintaining ubertooth in Debian. It has unfortunately been automatically removed from Debian testing now because of lack of Python3 support. Any timeline for Python3 support, or should I try to patch it myself?

I'm maintaining ubertooth in openSUSE. Ubertooth was also dropped from openSUSE Tumbleweed some time ago because of the missing python3 support :/

@rubund are you still supporting the package for Debian? Can it be re-included at this point?

[rubund]

@mikeryan It was only outside Debian testing between 2019-12-15 and 2019-12-23 before I uploaded it without specan-ui (https://tracker.debian.org/news/1088591/accepted-ubertooth-201812r1-3-source-into-unstable/) . Then I did a quick fix for specan-ui and uploaded that 2020-03-28 (https://salsa.debian.org/rubund/ubertooth/-/blob/master/debian/patches/0007-Patch-to-run-in-Python-3.patch). Apparently I forgot about this ticket and forwarding the patch to you.

@rubund The project dependencies changed as you can see on the installation wiki page. No longer requires libpcap or pyside2 but does require python3-numpy and python3-qtpy.

Is there a better way to reach you about coordinating these changes? You can email me at mike@ice9.us
