<br>
New to the mailing lists, but I've been trying to read up on the status <br>
of Python 3 support. I'm on Linux (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS), where Python 2 is <br>
no longer well-supported. The Flatpak version works alright, but I'm <br>
hoping to make some contributions to the VX-6R driver, so that means <br>
running from source.<br>
<br>
Anyway, a couple questions:<br>
<br>
1. The main question is what is the status of this? Dan mentioned in <br>
2019 that about half the drivers had been converted, and the bugtracker <br>
for #495 shows a bit more work since, but it (and the Py3 branch) hasn't <br>
been updated in quite a while. I saw some messages from certain <br>
individuals saying they've made some significant progress on their own <br>
(e.g. <br>
<a href="http://intrepid.danplanet.com/pipermail/chirp_devel/2021-June/006397.html" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">http://intrepid.danplanet.com/pipermail/chirp_devel/2021-June/006397.html</a>), <br>
but I'm guessing that's in private repos? I'm just not really sure <br>
what's going on. If there's still more work to be done, I'd like to <br>
help, because the legacy Python 2 dependencies are a royal pain.<br>
<br>
2. I know Dan was working on rewriting the GUI to use wxPython since <br>
gtk2 wasn't ported to Python 3. Is that still part of the Python 3 plan? <br>
Is there still more work to be done there?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
