Hello!

I'm afraid xapian-bindings 1.2 doesn't support python3. There's support on git master (and in development snapshot 1.3.2).

Ticket #346 was tracking progress on this.

As far as I know, nobody's working on backporting python3 support to xapian-bindings 1.2. It's certainly not a trivial diff + patch operation to do so.
