LS,
TW should be a rolling release and has for the most part the latest
version of packages. Alas, Python is not one of them. Python now is at
version 3.10.1, but TW is still at 3.8.12. That is an obstacle when one
tries to cross-compile Python-3.10.1. It is not possible to do so
because Python needs - by (bad?) design - a similar version major/minor
version on the building machine.
So, I wonder why is Opensuse TW so far behind with regard to Python-3.10.1?
Also, the packages 'file' and 'Ncurses´ have workarounds - they suffer from
the same issue, is there a workaround for Python?
Regards, Frans.

Yes, Python 3.9.9 is available, but you should still have 3.8.12 because of dependencies. Also, 3.9.9 is not 3.10.x, which is already around for some time. --- Frans -- A: Yes, just like that A: Ja, net zo Q: Oh, Just like reading a book backwards Q: Oh, net als een boek achterstevoren lezen A: Because it upsets the natural flow of a story A: Omdat het de natuurlijke gang uit het verhaal haalt Q: Why is top-posting annoying?
