What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Boot minimal Arch linux
2. start fslint-gui with python2
3. Click find on the duplicate-tab

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Several files, no errors

That's because the default python interpreter on arch must be python3 I guess if you modify all the fslint python scripts to start with python2 rather than python, it would solve it.

I'd do that now, but I note that debian say they're not doing this as this pep hasn't been agreed on:

yes, I had to run:

sudo perl -pi -e 's|/usr/bin/env python|/usr/bin/env python2|' /usr/share/fslint/fslint/supprt/rmlint/* /usr/share/fslint/fslint/fstool/dupwaste /usr/share/fslint/fslint/supprt/md5sum_approx /usr/bin/fslint-gui

now it works again.

It looks like it has been fixed in 2.46 https://github.com/pixelb/fslint/issues/111

This issue can be closed now.
