I won't be working on this, but a conversion would be accepted (maybe clean up the code and make more general while we're at it)

[rapgro]

Do you have some regression tests to let ensure we don't break anything with the refactoring?

Doesn't work on python3 :/

Hi, I believe the necessary changes are available here: https://github.com/wardi/speedometer/pull/17

Version 2.8-3 is now available in Debian Testing with Python3 Support

[Abdull]

On my Raspberry Pi Ubuntu Server 20.04.4 LTS I used speedometer (2.8-3) with joy until I had to migrate from Ubuntu 20's default python3.8 to Deadsnake PPA's python3.9.

Since then, starting speedmeter causes the following error:

$ speedometer -r eth0 -t eth0
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/speedometer", line 24, in <module>
    import psutil
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/psutil/__init__.py", line 95, in <module>
    from . import _pslinux as _psplatform
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/psutil/_pslinux.py", line 26, in <module>
    from . import _psutil_linux as cext
ImportError: cannot import name '_psutil_linux' from partially initialized module 'psutil' (most likely due to a circular import) (/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/psutil/__init__.py)

sudo apt install --reinstall python3-psutil did not fix this error.

speedometer is the best realtime traffic monitor for me, so does anyone have an idea how I can make speedometer work again with python3.9?

Fixed in master, close now, thank you!
