Closed JPFrancoia closed 8 years ago

Solve "TypeError: bytes or integer address expected instead of str instance" on Windows, when trying to get root privileges, with python 3.4. This issue was mentionned in #114.

This fixes ONLY the reported issue on Windows. After applying this fix, an EOFError is raised on Windows AND on Linux.
