Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
In Tails 5.0, onionshare 2.2-3 is installed, Python2 is not.
>From Nautilus, I want to right-click a file and share it via OnionShare.
* What was the outcome of this action?
Nothing happens. See
https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/18990 for details.
The reason is that onionshare is using urllib.url2pathname. This has
been renamed to urllib.request.url2pathname in python3.
Here is a fix that keeps compatibility with python2:
https://github.com/boyska/onionshare/commit/fd6269a7f3e54389543fd3559c8e4d39dfe02b09
I'm also attaching a patch that *drops* compatibility with python2.
Choose the one you like the most :)
