ExtendedInfo does not work due to Kodi65 python3 issue - fbacher - 2020-01-19

Reporting here since we are encouraged to report ExtendedInfo issues against the Skin that we are using.

Using (19.0-ALPHA1 Git:20200113-90f9e710a5). Platform: Linux x86 64-bit

ExtendedInfo fails to launch with:

Error Type: <class 'AttributeError'>

Full log (with a bunch of debug for my plugin) can be found at:

I believe that I am using the latest extendedInfo, kodi65 and other plugins. I downloaded them from git.

That was? (or still is) a python error due to the switch to python3 and the add-on not being compatible to python3 yet.
