python NameError: name ‘file’ is not defined

I dont know much about python. I want to start working on the project and the setup instruction says:

pip install -r requirements-dev.txt

Simple enougth. The problem is that I get this:

    Downloading/unpacking gunicorn==0.13.4 (from -r requirements.txt (line 7))
  Running setup.py egg_info for package gunicorn
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<string>", line 16, in <module>
      File "/tmp/pip-build-root/gunicorn/setup.py", line 18, in <module>
        long_description = file(
    NameError: name 'file' is not defined
    Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
    Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<string>", line 16, in <module>

  File "/tmp/pip-build-root/gunicorn/setup.py", line 18, in <module>

    long_description = file(

NameError: name 'file' is not defined

I dont understand the problem. Maybe somebody can help out?

I run this on Arch Linux, python defaults to python 3 and the project is not python 3 but Im not sure if thats it.

Thanks.
