Replace unicodecsv by standard csv module #367

Open jcapiitao opened 2 years ago

jcapiitao commented 2 years ago

unicodecsv is not maintained since a while now [1]. It was preferred over standard csv because of the unicode support. Now that Python3 csv module [2] supports it, let's use it.

For more context, we hit issues while rebuilding uncicodecsv during Fedora Python3.11 mass rebuild [3][4].

We are soon making changes that will remove any Python 2.x compatibility requirements on the develop branch. When that is done, then we will merge this in.
