Stepconf does not start was created by prochj51
Hi,
I have problem running stepconf.
It gives following output
prochj51@linuxcnc:~$ stepconf
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/stepconf", line 116, in <module>
    from stepconf import build_INI
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/stepconf/build_INI.py", line 30, in <module>
    importlib.reload(sys)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'reload'

I did not change the script in any way.
I am using LinuxCNC master branch installed.

Would any of you know what problem might be?
So far I have been running PNCCONF, it runs fine.

Thanks
Jiri

did you update from buildbot
or did you update after install at all

use the Packige manager to update your linuxcnc version
it does not effect any config at all

I updated it with Package manager.

I tried reinstallation of LinCNC master branch, still have the same issue.

I just found out that stepconf can no longer work with Ubuntu 16.04 :angry:
importlib.reload exists only in python3.
Also in ubuntu 16.04 there is no yapp package for python3.
The killer is rene-dev with the work of the last 5 days...:unsure:

You should create a new issue if a similar one does not yet exist.
