Description Valdas 2016-05-30 19:55:47 UTC
In Kig's Help chapter "Chapter 5. Scripting" is written "...select Objects → Other → Python Script from the menubar". But I cant find such menu item (see screenshot).

I'm using Kig v1.0; KDE frameworks 5.22.0.

Reproducible: Always

Missing Python scripting Menu Item.
Comment 2 Burkhard Lück 2016-05-31 04:42:28 UTC
In kig from distribution
Kubuntu 16.04
Kig v1.0 KDE Frameworks 5.22.0 Plasma 5.6.4 Applications 15.12.3
I have no "Python Script" menu item as well.

Whereas Kig master build from sources has this menu item and python support.

Maybe a packaging issue?

> Maybe a packaging issue?

Correct, this seems to be a packaging issue. Might be intentional to avoid the Python dependency or might be because Python detection at compile time has been sort of a hit or miss lately. If the latter is the case, I would be happy to help the packagers figure things out. I suggest someone opens a bug downstream and see what the packagers think about this.

Where I must go to open a bug downstream?

This is (or was) definitely a packaging issue in Ubuntu. I can see the menu in the current Debian testing-almost-new-stable package (16.08.3-1) and Fedora 25 (16.08.3-1). I can't check on Ubuntu but for sure the proper place for this issue is the downstream bug, so closing as DOWNSTREAM.
Comment 8 Luigi Toscano 2017-02-12 23:21:00 UTC
Or maybe it was related to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=360822. It was solved a bit later (Applications 16.04) but was available in version Applications 15.12.3. So changing to duplicate of the other bug
