I have a fairly simple Python program that I wrote a while ago in Python 2 that transfers images from my camera to a date ordered directory hierarchy on my computer.
I am trying to get it to work on Python 3 as I have just upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04 and on that Python 3 is now the default version of Python. I seem to be descending into a horrible morass of dependencies (or failed dependencies) when I try to install pyexiv2 (pr py3exiv2) using pip3. Can anyone point me at anywhere that might have some documentation that will help? The first problem (it might be the whole problem, I'm not sure) is which 'pyexiv2' I should be installing, there seem to be several apparently competing versions and it's not at all clear which is the most likely to work. On pypi there's py3exiv2 and pyexiv2 both of which claim to be for Python 3. On the http://py3exiv2.tuxfamily.org/ page it states: "py3exiv2 is the Python 3 version of pyexiv2 written for Python 2, ...", really! no wonder I'm confused. Essentially I need the python-pyexiv2 package for Ubuntu 20.04 and it's only available up to 19.10. -- Chris Green ยท -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
