Now I???ve reduced the image sizes to reduce the screen clutter.
Do you think it is ok?
Looks fine to me.
What might be good to put at the begining some (textual) examples how missing
python
displays itself (can't convert older lyx files, can't reconfigure, can't load
images, etc...)
so users can associate these problems with python missing.
Ok, I’ll make it.
The real solutions though is IMHO to detect python presence and issues warning
for installation…
Yes, that I’ll try to do - I have some ideas now.
Hi all,
finally - although late in the game - I came up with a proposal to solve the
problem with missing python on macOS.
It’s described here: https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/12523 and in more depth
here: https://wiki.lyx.org/Mac/Mac
Please see the attached patch. You may wonder why there is no mac specific
code. I think it’s not needed as the problem isn’t specific to the OS or
platform. It is very unlikely to happen on Linux systems as most of them has
package managers and if the dependencies are correct there is no problem like
that.
Yes, that seems right. This could happen on other platforms.
Probably the message text of the new Alert box should be reworded.
It seems fine, though I wonder if we could possibly point people towards a
solution?
I pushed commit bbc2270972cfbb1aa11836498c8a6c73be91f18d with slightly improved
message.
If the solution looks right I’d like to see it in 2.3.8 too.
Definitely. I'd even be willing to re-release 2.3.7, for Mac at least, with
this patch.
A patch for 2.3.x is attached at https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/12523
I’ll adjust the wiki when it’s applied.
If you were waiting for 2.3.x to be open again, it is.
I included a note about this in the announcement, too.
