    From bcw142@21:1/145 to All on Wed Mar 17 20:17:37 2021

    Python hasn't worked for a while on my systems. The one I was just working
    on is Mystic Linux/64. It's Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS with v1.12 A47 Linux/64 Compiled 2021/02/12 18:33:53. I've noticed g00r00 tried to make # do the
    python path for a theme, I believe the current theme. That doesn't seem
    to work, but maybe I don't understand how to use it. I've found the only
    thing that really works is the full path. Doing:
    ldconfig -p | grep libpython
    Yields:
    libpython3.8.so.1.0 (libc6,x86-64) => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.8.so.1.0 libpython2.7.so.1.0 (libc6,x86-64) => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython2.7.so.1.0 whereis python yields:
    python: /usr/bin/python2.7 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python3.8 /usr/lib/python2.7 /usr/lib/python3.9 /usr/lib/python3.8 /etc/python2.7 /etc/python3.8 /usr/local/lib/python2.7 /usr/local/lib/python3.8 /usr/include/python3.8 /usr/share/python
    I have the two python test scripts in /mystic/themes/default/scripts and
    they are using that full path. Both being the original one and the newer one. Running either yeilds:
    Cannot initialize Python, press a key

    Things look pretty standard placement wise so why don't they work? They both did on the earilier system before Windows10 crashed and I replaced it with Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS so it's likely that. I think things last worked under
    16.04 LTS, not sure about 18.04 LTS (which I had to compile 2.7).

    I finally gave up and installed .47 which allowed me to explicitly document the path to the lib in Mystic

    By .47 you really mean A47 2021/02/12 for the Pi/32 as noted in your tag line? Not sure how that helps, but will read over the whatsnew.txt again about python. Still I know the path and library are right which is why I put them
    in the original message:
    /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython2.7.so.1.0

    Yep - I smiled when I saw it! Realized it was exactly what I needed - I now can ron Python2.7 and 3 stacked - no issues. So yes .47 2/12 and on a Pi4 8GB box.

    Glad you found it and it worked out for you..

    I was running into issues with Python as well with A46, but I updated to A47 and haven't had any issues since then.
