WhisperBack does not start on Jessie with French locales
Seems like the string encoding handling wasn’t fully ported to the (much saner) Python 3 way of doing things:
amnesia@amnesia:~$ whisperback
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/whisperback", line 33, in <module>
ui = whisperBack.WhisperBackUI()
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/whisperBack/gui.py", line 145, in __init__
self.backend = whisperBack.whisperback.WhisperBack()
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/whisperBack/whisperback.py", line 108, in __init__
self.__load_conf(os.path.join("/", "etc", "whisperback", "config.py"))
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/whisperBack/whisperback.py", line 145, in __load_conf
exec(code, self.__dict__)
File "<string>", line 76, in <module>
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for %: 'bytes' and 'str'
