The previous weekend, I ported [[id:tags-lazyblorg][lazyblorg]] from Python 2 to Python 3.

If you - for some reason - need to access the last working version
that ran on Python 2, you can check out [[https://github.com/novoid/lazyblorg/commit/e22ba260f2f74f7d3e9bdd86b46e2ad24262e3d1][this commit]].

Moving from Python 2 to Python 3 as a user of lazyblorg should be very
easy. First, you need to make sure that you do have Python 3
installed. Then, you install the dependencies as mentioned in [[https://github.com/novoid/lazyblorg/blob/master/README.org][the
README file]]. You might want to remove all [[https://docs.python.org/3/library/pickle.html][pickle]] files as their format
got changed: the files do have the file extension =.pk= and are
located within the lazyblorg source code sub-hierarchy.

Run the tests and make sure they are working fine. Currently, the
end-to-end test might fail [[https://github.com/novoid/lazyblorg/issues/23][because of this issue]]. This should be fixed
soon.

My blog got re-generated using the Python 3 version already. It went
quite smooth. Let me know when you do have issues with the migration.
