Package: python3-sleekxmpp
Version: 1.0~beta4-3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hello,

First, thank you for packaging SleekXMPP. It will be useful, as I am planning
to package Poezio <http://poezio.eu/> wich depends on it.

I tried installing python3-sleekxmpp. It fails at configure:
> Setting up python3-sleekxmpp (1.0~beta4-3) ...
>   File 
> "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/sleekxmpp/xmlstream/tostring/tostring26.py", 
> line 43
>     tag_xmlns = u''
>                   ^
> SyntaxError: invalid syntax
> 
> dpkg: error processing python3-sleekxmpp (--configure):
>  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
> Errors were encountered while processing:
>  python3-sleekxmpp

I had a look at
"/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/sleekxmpp/xmlstream/tostring/tostring26.py": it
is full of u'' strings, which is not Python 3 syntax. In Python 3, strings are
Unicode by default, and it is byte strings that have to be explicitely declared
with b''.

I wonder if you did not put files from SleekXMPP for Python 2.6 instead of
Python 3 in python3-sleekxmpp.

Regards,
