Package Version

fritzcollectd 0.7.0
fritzconnection 1.2.1

I dont find anything wrong on informed file (but I am not python expert).

collectd.conf

Globals true ModulePath "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/dist-packages" ModulePath "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages" LogTraces true # Interactive true # Import "spam" # # # spam "wonderful" "lovely" #

    Import "fritzcollectd"

    <Module fritzcollectd>
            Address "#########"
            Port 49000
            User "collectd"
            Passwort "#########"
            Hostname "FritzBox"
            Instance "1"
            Verbose "False"
    </Module>

fritzconnection seems to work from command line.

It looks like some kind of issue with python versions compatibility....perhaps....I have 2.7.x and 3.7.x installed
python3/stable,now 3.7.3-1 armhf [installed]
python/stable,now 2.7.16-1 armhf [installed]

I tried to change those f-string modifiers to eg. '{}{}'.format(param1, param2) style and then it worked, also there was def woth only "*" parameter, that is also not probably accepted 2.x python....but there are just too much to modify all?
