Does python 3.1 support sybase module? It works fine with 2.5.
I was getting following error while installing sybase module on python
3.1.

bash-3.00$ python3.1 setup.py install
File "setup.py", line 248
maintainer=u"Sebastien Sable",
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
bash-3.00$

That's the old literal syntax for Unicode strings. In 3.x, Unicode
strings are the default and the 'u' prefix is no longer required.

Anyway, it's doubtful that a module not specifically ported to Python
3.0+ would work unmodified, given the many backwards-incompatible
changes that took place. Unless there's a Python 3.0+ specific version
of the library, you're probably out of luck for now.

Cheers,
Chris

My guess without looking at the code is that the line occurs in a dict
definition:

PACKET_OF_VALUES = dict(
maintainer=u"Sebastien Sable",
version=3.0,
...
)

Either that or 'maintainer' is a tuple ;)
