Jens: Meeeeh... wpull crashes with Python 3.5
JAA: Yeah, version 1.2.3 isn't compatible with 3.5+ IIRC.
Jens: Was trying to set up a sane Newgrabber environment :/
The precompiled wpull is dodgy as hell.
JAA: Agreed. That's also why I'm not running this project on my machines.
Jens: I'm not going to do Python brain surgery on my "production" machine.
And latest Win10 upgrade broke VirtualBox.
Remind me why wpull v2 isn't used by Newsgrabber.
JAA: wpull 2 is very unstable and buggy.
Jens: Hmm.
JAA: 2.0.1 is unusable, FalconK's 2.0.3 is better but still has lots of problems.
Jens: It would be nice if wpull was maintained :/
JAA: Yeah. I did work a bit on it some months ago (fixing bugs and adding new features), but then other things took up my time again, so the code I wrote is unfinished and unpublished currently.
Jens: And I just started learning Python last week.
Broken 3.5 support is kind of a showstopper.
JAA: 2.x works fine on Python 3.6, I believe.
Where "fine" means "not any worse than on previous Python versions".
