Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
I started the game and made menu selections up to the point when
the race should start.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
1. I started pyracerz from the command line and the opening screen
came up with a race car sound. The xterm I start it from showed
these messages:
12% pyracerz
pygame 2.6.1 (SDL 2.30.11, Python 3.13.1)
Hello from the pygame community. https://www.pygame.org/contribute.html
Cannot use psyCo...
2. From the opening menu I pressed enter with "Single Race" selected.
3. The screen changed to one with header "singleRace: chooseTrack.
I pressed enter with the default < bio > track selected.
4. Next came the screen with header "singleRace: chooseNbLaps" I
pressed enter with 1 selected.
5. Next it was "singleRace: chooseNbHumanPlayers". I down arrowed
to 1 and pressed enter.
6. Next "singleRace: chooseHumanPlayer1". I pressed up error to
select GO and pressed enter, which accepted the default settings.
7. Next "singleRace: chooseNbRobotPlayers". I pressed enter with 0
selected.
8. The graphical window closed, the program terminated, and the
xterm I started it from showed these two new messages:
Cannot load track :
'ConfigParser' object has no attribute 'readfp'
* What was the outcome of this action?
The game couldn't be played. Only the options could selected.
The error messages above appeared on my xterm.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
For the race to start.
It looks like python 3.2 removed readfp from the ConfigParser class
and replaced it with read_file. You can see
"New in version 3.2: Replaces readfp()" under the read_file entry
here in Python 3.2 documentation:
https://docs.python.org/3.2/library/configparser.html#configparser-objects
Contrast that with Python 3.1 documentation that still has readfp
(under the RawConfigParser base class):
https://docs.python.org/3.1/library/configparser.html#rawconfigparser-objects
When I patched and built the source package locally with readfp
renamed to read_file I could get to the track screen and play the
game. I'm attaching the patch replace-readfp.patch which should
apply cleanly after the other patches have applied (i.e. after
font-replacement.patch).
