a quick solution is to replace line with line.decode()

Hi, I used this method but it didn't work.
Also, the plot step didn't work with python 3 So I used python 2.7
Is there any way to compatible the BandUP with python 3?

[fraricci]

Hi, I think there were other edits to do in order to get it work on Python3.
I sent a pull request, you might use that code.
Let me know if it works.

I have also faced the same issue. Could you please help me ?

Try to clone and install my fork that include the needed edit to be py3 compatible.

When I run : ./build I get this at the end :

cd spglib-1.5.2;
./configure FC=ifort CC=icc CFLAGS=-openmp FCFLAGS=-openmp;
cd /home/ouettar/Downloads/bandup-master (1)/bandup-master/src/external

dear @Chikou24i , the problem that you are facing happens only with the PR #7 from @fraricci , or with the master branch of bandup also ?

I think the reason is that it is assumed that /bin/sh is assumed to point to bash , but probably on your system it does not . What is your system and what is your default shell?

fixed in #21
