resume_list.py

I used to use this python script to display the packages that would be
emerged when using the "--resume" option. But it does't work with
python3.2 interpreter:

~ # cat resume_list.py
import portage

resume_list=portage.mtimedb["resume"]["mergelist"]

for i in range(len(resume_list)):
print "="+resume_list[i][2]
~ #
~ # python ~/resume_list.py
File "/root/resume_list.py", line 6
print "="+resume_list[i][2]
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
~ #

Q: Is there a way to make it work with python3.2 ?

I believe parentheses are mandatory for print function in python 3.x.
So try to change it to:
print("="+resume_list[i][2])

Disclaimer: I do not know python. :)

In Python 3.x, 'print' is a function, not a builtin. So it'd be

print( "blah" )

instead of

print "blah"

There are standard scripts out there for converting between py2 and py3, FWIW.
