Package: gajim Version: 1.0.0~alpha2-1 Severity: normal Hi.
Trying to use gajim-remote, I get the following output:
$ gajim-remote prefs_put sounds_on=True
Traceback (most recent call last):

AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'decode'

Apparently, it is related to a change in strings API between python 2 and 3.
The following trivial patch seems to fix things:

try:
res = self.method(*args)
I do not know how encoding is treated now by python; there are other uses of
PREFERRED_ENCODING that may need updating too.
