Looks like you're running python3 code in python2:

$ python2.7 
Python 2.7.16 (default, Oct 10 2019, 22:02:15) 
[GCC 8.3.0] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sys
>>> cmd = 'xyz'
>>> print('abc', cmd, file=sys.stderr)
  File "<stdin>", line 1
    print('abc', cmd, file=sys.stderr)
                          ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
>>>
