  File "./w3af_gui", line 23
    except w3afException, w3:
                        ^

Add python-3.2 as a block
Comment 1 Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-05-17 18:49:06 UTC 
This syntax is incompatible with all versions of Python 3.
Comment 2 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-05-27 09:48:59 UTC 
Fixed in -r1
Comment 3 Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2011-05-27 11:25:40 UTC 
I must reopen...it does not work for me. Same error also in 1.0 version
Comment 4 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-05-27 11:31:40 UTC 
It does not work if you have python3 as default python interpreter. I don't know how to force it to use python2 no matter what. I guess I could use some python help.
