Can't use glade2script on 20.04 (glade2script-python3 error)

[Jānis Kangarooo]

Trying to run boot-repair (or boot-info) in 20.04 daily, I get error:

VirtualBox:~$ boot-repair
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/glade2script-python3", line 49, in <module>
    from ConfigParser import ConfigParser
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'ConfigParser'

********************* INFORMATION FROM DEVS****************
This is due to the fact that glade2script uses Python2, which has been removed from 20.04.
So now we need to upgrade /usr/bin/glade2script to Python3... which may take weeks/months. Hopefully someone can help.

Meanwhile, you can still use latest version of Boot-Repair PPA from a 18.04 or 19.10 live session, or from a Boot-Repair-Disk. Even if 20.04 is installed on your computer.

Fixed on 4ppa74, by using Python2 from Universe.

It would be nice to port glade2script to python3 instead of using old, not supported python2
Currently I can't include boot-repair into new Baltix GNU/Linux 20.04 operating system, because this is only software, which uses old python2

hi Mantas, I need help to port it to Python3, see https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glade2script/+spec/g2s-python3

[Marius Gedminas (mgedmin)]

I'm willing to help with the Python 3 port. Where can I find the git repository with the latest source code please?

[YannUbuntu (yannubuntu)]

hi Marius, thx for that. There is no git. The latest source code is available at https://launchpad.net/~yannubuntu/+archive/ubuntu/boot-repair/+packages . I also added some advice at https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glade2script/+spec/g2s-python3

FYI, Glade2script has been ported to Python3 ( glade2script-3.2.4~ppa23 ), so no need for Universe workaround any more.
