Hi, is there any plan/estimate of making nfs-utils compatible with Python 3? I'm currently trying to figure out what it'd take to move Fedora to Python 3 and since nfs-utils is one of Anaconda's deps, it'd need to be converted as one of the first. Thanks.

I'm not sure what it means to be "compatible with Python 3"... Is Python 3 not backwards compatible with older versions?

No, Python 3 breaks backwards compatibility [1], [2], but you can make the code work on Python 2.6 and higher and be forward compatible.

Created attachment 775790 [details] Patch porting nfs-utils to Python 3. So, here's a patch that ports the two scripts in nfs-utils to Python 3. I basically ran 2to3 on the files and did some minor hand adjustments. The downside is that this will only run on Python 2.6+, but that should hopefully be enough.
Thanks! Could you submit the patch upstream? I'd recommend mail to steved, cc:'d to linux-nfs.org.

I tried to do that couple of days ago, but I got no response. Are you in touch with upstream? Could you possible try to contact them and ask them to accept? Thanks!

Please use the appropriate format including the Signed-off-by line. In the future, please feel free to ping privately to get my attention on things like this... The amount of email I get from bugzilla.redhat.com is simply abusive, so I tend to miss things like this...
