If the latter is the case, I'll be happy to find the place and fix it, but I rather ask at first ;) [...] And one off-topic question; since we have libvirt bindings for both current major python versions, is anyone working on the transition (or is it even worth it) to change to python3 or even to some compatible mid-point between these two? What would you say to a suggestion of changing our shebang in headers from '/usr/bin/python' to '/usr/bin/env python2'? Because if I have python3 set as default, none of the commands work and it looks like that's the last compatible thing to do for me to be able to stick with python3 as default. Have a nice day, Martin
