Cuffmerge:ValueError: can't have unbuffered text I/O about cufflinks HOT 5 OPEN

I encountered the same error. I believe this is a problem with the cufflinks package from Debian—not the upstream cufflinks. The package maintainers apply a patch to make cuffmerge work with Python 3, but it seems they neglected to change the calls to open. Here's a short patch that should fix it.

If you're encountering this issue on Ubuntu 20.04, you can download a version of the cufflinks package with the patch I suggested applied from my repository here.

The steps are
