Hi,

sorry, I launched a full rebuild in unstable and didn't see this change.
However I don't understand this error (I'm not Python dev), code is:

 try:
   # maketrans moved to str in python3.
   _maketrans = string.maketrans
 except NameError:
   _maketrans = str.maketrans

So error should be discarded, isn't it?
