Hi,

I need help with an issue in python-uncertainties[2].  It only occures
with Python 2:

$ python
Python 2.7.15+ (default, Aug 31 2018, 11:56:52) 
[GCC 8.2.0] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from uncertainties import core
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/uncertainties/__init__.py", line 224, in <module>
    from .core import *
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/uncertainties/core.py", line 946, in <module>
    ord(sup): normal for (normal, sup) in list(TO_SUPERSCRIPT.items())}
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/uncertainties/core.py", line 946, in <dictcomp>
    ord(sup): normal for (normal, sup) in list(TO_SUPERSCRIPT.items())}
TypeError: ord() expected a character, but string of length 3 found
>>> 

With Python 3 everything is fine.

Any idea what might be wrong?

Please note that I commited a new upstream tarball to Git.  It has the
same release version but pypi contains a totally different release
tarball than Github (different file site and different dirs).  I was
told that the Github version works "better" but this specific error
occures for both.  I'd recommend to use the current HEAD in Git anyway
since that version looks more "sensible" in some way.

I would also love if someone would check whether dh_auto_test is working
correctly.  I somehow see no sign that the test suite is executed - thus
the problem above seems to remain hidden.

Kind regards and thanks for any help

      Andreas.
