No module named 'six.moves' #1

Hello and thanks for that really great program I strongly rely on :-)

But... I recently upgraded from Ubuntu 22.04 to Ubuntu 24.04 and airnef stopped working.

_/home/flitter/Programme/airnef/airnefcmd.py:638: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\M' parser.addargument('--outputdir', type=str, help='Directory to store image/file(s) to. Default is current directory. No ending backslash is necessary. If path contains any spaces enclose it in double quotes. Example: --outputdir \"c:\My Documents\"', default=None, metavar="path", required=False) /home/flitter/Programme/airnef/airnefcmd.py:3144: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '|' progressChars = "-|/" Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/flitter/Programme/airnef/airnefcmd.py", line 17, in from six.moves import xrange ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'six.moves'

Believing that my Python installation is somewhat damaged I installed a completely new Xubuntu VM, but the same error arises again. Just now I now tried it under Arch Linux and it's all the same. Surely, "python3-six" is installed everywhere.

I believe there is some issue with newer versions of Python (wow, great: a compatibility layer that causes errors itself), but I'm not able to repair that myself. I'm thankful for every advice!

I could solve this problem myself by installing Python 3.10 using pyenv :-D

@flittermice thank you. I faced the same problems as you and also used pyenv with Python 3.10.14 to fix it.

I ran into one additional issue: The "tk-dev" package must be installed on the system for pyenv to build the chosen version with tk-inter support (otherwise you will receive a warning after, for example, trying "pyenv install 3.10.14").

Also, which is a different bug, there is an "import re" missing in airnef.pyw.

Hope this helps anyone else.

Great! I didn't face this particular problem because I only use the program in the command line, mostly as an ever running systemd job.

Fyi, these problems don't occur for me with the prebuilt binaries from the homepage (which use Python 2.7).
