Hello. I've mostly shifted to Py3 and have been been using eric now and then which is very useful for debugging my Py programs -- many thanks to the developer(s)!
But the eric on my Kubuntu Precise system is eric4, and it marks print() functions as bugs. I even tried including at the head of my file: import sys if sys.version < '3' : from __future__ import print_function but eric4 still throws an error saying "from __future__" statements should be at the top of the file, so this is not an option for me, nor do I wish to forgo the advantages of the print function just to be able to use eric4. I found the following bug report regarding official Debian packaging for eric5: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=685140 ... but it seems there is little progress. Googling also did not give me anything. No PPAs on LaunchPad seem to have anything either: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter=eric5 Can anyone point me to any Debian packages which I have missed, or is checkinstall the only option? Thanks! -- Shriramana Sharma _______________________________________________ Eric mailing list [email protected] http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/eric
