Reported by: Virgil Dupras Component:

I'm a little confused. The description says Markdown supports Python 3, but the setup.py file has an invalid 3k syntax. Even if I fix the syntax, the installed markdown module also has an invalid 3k syntax. I tried with both PyPI's 2.0.3 package and the trunk on gitorious. What happened? Did you drop 3k support or something?

Markdown 2.0.3 only will work if you run 2to3 manually. However, the current git repo should run 2to3 automatically from the setup script and will only work with Python 3.1+ (in other words, it will not work with Python 3.0). Although, I see there is a few incompatibilities in the syntax in setup.py. They are fixed now (as of commit 3db36d4). Thanks for the report.
