No issue seen I tested this on my MacBook Pro running macOS 13.3.1 and discovered that it has python 3.7.x: Could NOT find Python3: Found unsuitable version "3.7.3", but required is at least "3.8.0" (found /usr/bin/python3, found components: Interpreter) Since the motivation for checking the minimum was both to avoid python2, and because there is a problem with python 3.7 on Windows, I wonder if it would be better to only have Windows require 3.8 and have Mac join Linux in allowing 3.6. Of course, I could upgrade my python, but I wonder if other developers might run into it. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1205#issuecomment-1674029494
