I’ve got this error when i every time using logextract.py.
What is the problem.

i got the same error and would need some help since i am not good at python and linux, but i guess it has something to do with the 64bit version of the raspberry, since i also have this version installed…

The logextract.py developer tool has not yet been ported to python3. It will require using a python2 binary until someone gets around to porting it.
