I am a bit concerned, this program is old and I don't believe it was "updated" for Python 3.
Please test and report!
@AndersonTorres well, sadly no change.

Thanks!
However, this is just the tip of the iceberg. As you suggested, the program itself might be outdated or needs research into dependencies:

Because "making this to run" clearly surpasses "maintaining the package", I don't want to pressure you fixing it. So best resolution may be leaving the issue out until someone can fix it.
Good to know. I will comment that particular program.
Solved as "wontfix" :)
Describe the bug
