[Bug 1013171] Re: Many package hooks not ported to python3

[Edward Donovan]

apache2.2-common has a hook that uses 'unicode()'.  That can be replaced
by 'str()', but doesn't actually break on my python3 install.  So I'm
not sure whether we want to change that, or leave it alone.  Here is the
simple patch, but I won't add apache2 to the bug report, I think, until
someone with more experience chimes in on that.  Thanks.


** Patch added: "apache2 apport hook patch, replacing 'unicode' with 'str', in case that's wanted."
   https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/lxpanel/+bug/1013171/+attachment/3204306/+files/apache2.2-common.patch

** Description changed:

  Since the description here is the only post that can be updated, it
  seems the best place to keep a changing list.  (The original description
  was brief, and about only one package.)
  
  Working from the archive's Contents file, I got the list of packages
  that keep files under apport/package-hooks.  Below are the packages that
  haven't been tested yet, to my knowledge.  As I get time, I'll test them
  with 2to3, and update the list.  And try to post patches as needed.
  Thanks - Edward Donovan <edward.donovan at numble.net>
