Bug Description
On Ubuntu Quantal 12.10, when running with the provided pyserial python package, calling "serial" produces an error message:
File "/usr/share/
50: 0000001,
SyntaxError: invalid token
This is because pyserial has been installed (by/for the package) by doing "python setup.py install" instead of "python3 setup.py install". A manual installation of pyserial, properly installing it with python3 solves the problem.
Moreover, python packages installed in "/usr/share/
This is for python-serial 2.5.3 on KUbuntu Quantal 12.10
