Hans-Peter Jansen created an issue

since packagers like me hate cherry picking patches to build a usable python3 version...

    Why do you need a Python 3 version of this package? This package is just back-ports of selected 3.x functionality for 2.x. That functionality should already be in Python 3.x.

  2. Hans-Peter Jansen reporter

    Because some packages require logutils, no matter which python version they run on

    If this is a back ported package, it would be cool to put it in the backports namespace...

  4. Vinay Sajip repo owner

    It's not a full backport of everything that's in 3.x, mind. Is it SUSE you package for? Is it easy to find which packages require logutils on your distro?

    If you're after a release which works unchanged on 2.x and 3.x, I would have to make quite a few small changes here and there ... I should be able to look at it in the next 2-3 weeks (I'm fairly busy work-wise at the moment)

    Hey Vinay, all is well, pleas3e take your time.

    Problably, I sounded a little harsh without intention. Sorry for that.

    Work goes first, rest has to follow (unlike living in a perfect world, where things would go the other way around...)

    Took a quick look - existing release (0.3.3) seems to run fine on 2.x and 3.x - not sure why a new release is needed:

    $ python setup.py test && python3 setup.py test
    running test
    ....Some unicode string with some śćźół chars

    Ran 31 tests in 0.008s
    
    OK
    running test
    ....Some unicode string with some śćźół chars

    Ran 31 tests in 0.008s
    
    OK
    $ python3.6 setup.py test && python3.7 setup.py test
    running test
    ....Some unicode string with some śćźół chars

    OK, let me check. I only had time for a quick look. As the current sources run OK then maybe it won't take that long to cut a release. No firm promise of when, mind, beyond what I said above ...
