See the notice on https://pypi.python.org/pypi/xhtml2pdf :

As per 2016-06-05, this project is officially abandonded by the only maintainer and effectively dead. Please read the notice of 2016-05-02.

The recommended replacement is Weasyprint: https://github.com/Kozea/WeasyPrint http://weasyprint.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ which (notably) has support for Python 3.

Note that we use xhtml2pdf in a very simple way (see coin/html2pdf.py), so it should be easy to migrate.

That being said, while it still works, there's no need to spend time on this.

After struggling again with xhtml2pdf dependencies hell (on our production coin, invoice generation is broken), I'm getting some motivation to trash it soon :-)

Stay tunned…
