Bug Description

It was a release goal to: to have only Python 3 on the desktop CD images (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Python/3). It doesn't look like this will be reached in 12.10, but eventually it will and then catfish needs to move too.

I'm hoping to provide some patches to ease the transition..

Switches to hashlib and cleans up white space Edit (754 bytes, text/plain)

In this first patch I:
* remove some tabs that break in 3
* Move from the deprecated md5 module to using hashlib's md5

The experimental branch is now compatible with Python versions 2 or 3. Check it out. :-) Please use quantal or raring as there is a bug in precise that prevents this version from working.
