SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Comment 1 April 2015-05-30 15:04:33 UTC
I compared the current /usr/bin/purple-remote with the version from Fedora 20 ... the only difference is that the current version starts with "#!/usr/bin/python3" whereas the version from Fedora 20 starts with "#!/usr/bin/python" ... removing the "3" from the current version addresses the problem.

Please, verify that purple-remote works for you, thanks!

Comment 5 April 2015-06-02 13:00:03 UTC
Does not work:
purple-remote 'setstatus?status=away&message=test message';

Works:
purple-remote getstatus;
purple-remote getstatusmessage;
purple-remote quit;

Appears not to work:
purple-remote 'PurpleAccountsFindConnected?name=test@localhost/&protocol=prpl-jabber';

Appears to work:
purple-remote 'PurpleAccountsFindConnected(test@localhost/,prpl-jabber)';

Other untested.

Improvement over current package, but not a complete fix.
