Bug Description

Any plans to support Python 3 ? While trying to clean my system out of python2, I came around ecryptfs which depends on python2 in my distro. I also learned today about the ` --disable-pywrap` configure flag which makes the build of ecryptfs not need python2 at all. Are there any plans to migrate to python3?

Just out of curiosity, what does it mean to `--disable-pywrap`?

I think it just means the python extensions (bindings to interface with ecryptfs from python) will not be built. If all you use are straight `ecryptfs-add-passphrase` and `mount.ecryptfs_private`, you won't be need these bindings.
