[PSF-Community] Unable to login | fbchat.Client

[rami.chowdhury at gmail.com]

Hi Shivam,

Please be aware this mailing list is for PSF community-focused 
discussions -- see the list's purpose described at 
https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/psf-community.

I might suggest you participate in the discussion on on the `fbchat` 
project repository on GitHub -- the issue at 
https://github.com/carpedm20/fbchat/issues/598 seems to match the error 
you've pasted. Alternatively, you could try directing your question to 
the general Python list (python-list at python.org, CC'd here).

Regards,
Rami
