Fair enough Philip. I will do some more research and add the results of that
research to IMPALA-3343 at a minimum. I don't currently have an impala
development environment configured, along with test case execution, and I have
enough other project work going on that I don't know if I really have the time
to do that incremental infrastructure building. I've done enough research to
find some tools to help with Python 2 to 3 conversions, and see that there will
be at least a little bit more than print statements.
What I know I can do is start modifying my local copy of the file and see if I
can get impala-shell working again for myself, and share the results of that
research / exploration.
Thanks

I'm not aware of anyone having tried it, so I don't think we know. I'd also
check in on Thrift's support for Python3. That seems like the most likely
library. You can certainly give removing print a shot!
