Package firmware/wireless-regdb db2fw.py: SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'

For Developers

As first noted here: Can anyone build wireless-regdb from 19.07 branch?

This problem has seeped it's way into 18.06.5. I'm building on an automated environment that has not changed since 18.06.4.

Known broken, patch submitted, tested. No idea why this wasn't fixed.

BTW forum is not a proper place for bug reports, please check https://openwrt.org/bugs one more time.

It is fixed in master https://git.openwrt.org/b6bae4a2c9f11f7e55319c2b4c709396ce649688 but it wasn't backported to 19.07 and 18.06 simply because nobody is probably aware about this issue.
