ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'csdecoder' (Debian)

I'm not sure whats happening, but for some reason when I type colorsafe encode test.png

I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/bin/colorsafe", line 11, in <module>

Same for me.

@justinbass Pls. can you assist?

[Wikinaut]

@InnovativeInventor Could you solve your problem, how?

[justinbass]

This only works for Python 2 currently. Originally this was by design, since the program is supposed to be archival by nature. But since Python 2 is being outright deprecated slowly in favor of Python 3 I've since changed my mind.

[Wikinaut]

uh, pls. can you fix this so that I can start testing your code?

[justinbass]

The fix is to use Python 2. I don't need you to test this - it's in an early stage, and I am aware of its issues and how to proceed. What I need, unfortunately, is more free time...

[Wikinaut]

In that way I cannot test your code on my debian 9 and 10 systems, and the bounty (from May 2015) decision Rupan/paperbak#1 has to be further postponed.

For your information, I just upgraded to debian 10 and there we have

$ python --version
Python 2.7.15

$ python3 --version
Python 3.6.5rc1

[justinbass]

I have not tried on Debian, but tested this on Ubuntu, macOS, and Windows via Cygwin. I'm using pip install colorsafe, and it's working out of the box. Can you provide more details in how you're setting it up?

[Wikinaut]

pip install colorsafe

[justinbass]

This is working more or less for me on Debian 9, though pip is broken out of the box and requires some modification: pypa/pip#5221. Not sure what you are seeing, but I'm not able to replicate it. Please try again on a different operating system if possible.

[justinbass]

Also working on Raspbian Wheezy out of the box. If you have more information let me know, but I only intend to support this for the most common operating systems.

[Wikinaut]

and the bounty can only be paid if I am satisfied.

[justinbass]

As mentioned previously, I would only accept payment in the form of a donation to the Free Software Foundation or other similar cause. I'd advise giving the bounty to the author of paperback-cli, who seems to have satisfied the original intention of your bounty requirements more closely - or else hold out for something else.

I'll close this ticket out for now. Please re-open (with full information) if you notice an issue elsewhere.
