[Leaplist] python programming in Linux

I do some light duty programming, and pretty much use python.  I've been 
using python 2.6 for a pretty long time, and bounced around for gui 
development.  for the last year, I've used pyqt4 under kubuntu jaunty 
and karmic, with what I thought were really good results.  One of the 
updates from the past couple of months started giving me seg faults in 
programs that had seemed solid. (the updates could have been anything - 
I don't have a handle on it.)

Since I'm going to be putting some time into debugging these programs, I 
thought about moving to python 3.x first.

Any python programmers in Leap, with 3.x experience?  Is it worth the 
move, and was it painful to get from 2.6 to 3.x?  I figure it's better 
to ask before I upgrade, in case anyone has horror stories.

thanks,
Dan
