python3 support has been added upstream about one year ago, in https://gitlab.com/pdftools/pdfposter/commit/663081f71bf855273aa22a211e7f1151347e191c but is still not in a release. As you already know[1] :) I had pinged upstream for a release, but it's still pending (thanks for the further ping, btw) [1] https://gitlab.com/pdftools/pdfposter/issues/5#note_71467160 the patch does look pretty simple, but I don't believe that it applies as is to the old code in the packaged version, so I would prefer to wait for the new upstream release to deliver code that has been actually tested on py3. -- Elena ``of Valhalla''
