    exa is an improved file lister with more features and better defaults.                                    
    It uses colours to distinguish file types and metadata.                                                   
    It knows about symlinks, extended attributes, and Git.                                                    
    And its small, fast, and just one single binary.                                                         

Fails here: https://pagure.io/fm-orchestrator/blob/fce77b48dc45ed7ece8b7abeac2a5a171fbe4fa6/f/module_build_service/builder/KojiContentGenerator.py#_711

This needs fix on libmodulemd level ideally at first: https://github.com/fedora-modularity/libmodulemd/issues/184.

Otherwise we will have to write wrapper around mmd.dumps() to return unicode on python2 and str on python3. Or find some method in python which already does that.

This should be fixed already for some time.
