Comment:
Had to rebase the patch to make testing easier on my end; current Git
commit hash is `2efbd8cbc0d69447f3047c151921aabc19f5682b` (still at
https://notabug.org/JeremyRand/tor-browser-build/src/namecoin-3.3.11 ).
Works fine in my testing on Python 3.7.x, and yanmaani reports that
applying the Electrum-NMC patch manually to his Tor Browser Nightly fixed
things on Python 3.8.x. So I think this is ready for review.
This bug (and #33752 , which is also fixed by this patch) are blocking
some testers from trying out the Namecoin support in Nightly, so it would
be great if it can be reviewed and merged relatively quickly. (But, as
usual, I know this experiment is not the highest priority for you, so I
won't be annoyed if it takes time.)
Thanks to Cyberia Computer Club for donating server resources that made it
easier to test this patch.
