https://notes.sagredo.eu/en/qmail-notes-185/queue-repair-21.html#comment1506 this patch makes code python3 compliant. Is there someone who will merge my PR, when I send it with Python 3 support? Reproducible: Always
You can prepare a PR on github. We can help you how to prepare/format it properly. You can ask on IRC #gentoo-dev-help Ideally it should be pushed upstream and fixed there. I sent a mail to the author and will report here about the outcome. Perhaps he is willing to push the source to a repository where you can send you patches to.

In short, I'm really disappointed. Unlike PRs, information attached to bugs turns out to be very useful - easy to find, download and apply to local system. I'm using Gentoo since 2004, but my experience may be limited, or it may works this way because something is wrong with me or my PRs - sure, that's possible. Anyway… sure, I'll open PR, no prob. Just don't be surprised if this won't change anything.
I sent a mail to upstream who was thankful and is going to look into the patch soon. I think a fix upstream is the best solution.
ping.
@dakon, would you like to take care of it?
