iOS 3 backups: syntax error

[GoogleCodeExporter]

trying to use backup_tool.py on an encrypted iOS 3 backup.

see issue ID 100: after applying the patch, I get a syntax error:

Product Type : iPhone1,2
Product Version : 3.0.1
iTunes Version : 8.2.1
Extract backup to ../../output/ ? (y/n)
y
Backup is encrypted
Enter backup password : 
No BackupKeyBag in manifest, assuming iOS 3.x backup
Passphrase seems OK
