Would it be possible to make BleachBit compatible with python3?

Arch Linux switched their main python package from v2 to v3 and I believe this does affect BleachBit.

Python 3

Would it be possible to make BleachBit compatible with python3?

Anything is possible, but this could potentially be a headache. Python.org describes Python 2 as the "status quo." Doesn't Arch have Python 2 that can be installed in parallel? Fedora 13 (which I use) has Python 2.6 standard with Python 3.1 which can be installed in parallel.

How many Linux distributions is that?

Yes Arch has a python2 (2.7)

Yes Arch has a python2 (2.7) package so I guess I'll stick with that.
