Indeed there have been many people doing the same, unfortunately nobody ever posted a patch which would preserve compatibility with python 2. I don't know a thing about python but I can't imagine that this is not possible. Unfortunately, as long as nobody contributes a patch which makes py-smbus work for both python version 2 and version 3, I can't apply it. I don't think it makes sense to break compatibility with one version to make the other one work. -- Jean Delvare SUSE L3 Support -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
