problem in puthon 2 with open and encoding keyword

[martinbjerge]

In setup.py open is called with keywork "encoding" (line 4) this don't work in python 2, hence sugest to "import io" and use "io.open" insted.

eg. see this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25049962/is-encoding-is-an-invalid-keyword-error-inevitable-in-python-2-x

Hi! I developed this pyexiv2 based on python3(64bit), so it won't work on python2. You have two choices:

• Use my pyexiv2 on python3(64bit).
• Use the pyexiv2 developed by another team, which is based on Python2, but no longer maintained.

Wooo…I'm going to close this issue.

Thanks for getting back to me so fast. OK, i was just under the impression that pyexiv2 was for python2 and py3exiv2 was for python3. Also i don't get why your project is the one beeing installed when i use pip install (in python2) and not the other one thats for python2. But all good i will get it up and running.

The pyexiv2 and py3exiv2 projects you mentioned were developed several years ago, while I developed this pyexiv2 in 2019. Their names are very similar, haha.
