Description

The tails-additional-software script reads: “XXX: replace with check_output when Tails will be based on Wheezy”. Presumably, the 3 lines that follow were copied straight from Python 2.7’s implementation of check_output.

The code lives is there: https://git-tails.immerda.ch/tails/tree/config/chroot_local-includes/usr/local/sbin/tails-additional-software

Unfortunately the XXX you referred to is not in the code anymore. Thus, it is unclear which 3 following lines you are referring to. I could dig into git.. but to me it seems that check_output is present.
I let you verify this is correct and close this ticket. Thanks!
