Description Tomasz 2025-01-21 10:43:23 UTC
SUMMARY
There should be information on required python version for building on linux from source. There is one for building from windows and macOS. Linux user are probably going to skip these sections though.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Should be mentioned on 1 of this pages:
- https://docs.krita.org/en/untranslatable_pages/building_krita.html
- https://docs.krita.org/en/untranslatable_pages/building/build_krita_with_docker_on_linux.html#building-krita-with-docker

OBSERVED RESULT
No information about python version.


EXPECTED RESULT
Information about required python 3.10 version within prequisites section.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Tested on Fedora Workstation 41 but applies to all distributions.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I had installed by default newest python version (that is 3.13.1) and could not build from source because of that. There was problem while installing dependencies before creating container.
