| Summary | 0009164: python dependency does not include non-default modules | ||||
| Description | The README clearly indicates that python>=3.8 is a requirement: https://git.taler.net/wallet-core.git/tree/README#n8 However, a typical python3 install may not include python's "distutils", which is a requirement of building wallet-core. without python's distutils, ./configure fails with: info: running with python sys.version_info(major=3, minor=11, micro=2, releaselevel='final', serial=0) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/debian/src/taller/wallet-core/build-system/configure.py", line 7, in <module> import talerbuildconfig as tbc File "/home/debian/src/taller/wallet-core/build-system/taler-build-scripts/talerbuildconfig.py", line 35, in <module> from distutils.spawn import find_executable ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils.spawn' How should the need for python3's distutils module be reflected in the README? | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | # Start with a fresh installed OS or VM, for instance I used http://cloud.debian.org/images/cloud/bookworm/20240901-1857/debian-12-genericcloud-amd64-20240901-1857.qcow2 in my testing. # install dependencies declared in the README sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install \ python3 \ nodejs \ jq \ npm \ zip sudo npm install -g pnpm git clone git://git.taler.net/wallet-core.git cd wallet-core ./bootstrap ./configure --prefix=/tmp/wallet-core | ||||
| Additional Information | Naturally, this is trivially addressed by installing the dependency. (With the Debian test system as I used, that would be add an "apt-get install python3-distutils".) | ||||
