Because the python vulnerability fix was just upgrading python3 from 3.4 to 3.7 (!): Are there any clues how to manage self compiled libraries for python and harbour?

Are they allowed? How to double deliver for 3.4 and 3.7 with /usr/share/harbour/myapp/lib/python3.x/site-packages?

(I just build a libolm-support and with 3.0.2 it needs a recompile because of 3.7)

How can one / did you upgrade to python 3.7? I would also be interested in a newer python version, because of asyncio (with async/await syntax).

SFOS 3.0.2.8 introduces Python 3.7.2

It is not the upgrade to 3.7.x (that is great). It is the upgrade "politics" here: I just got python-olm running (for this https://gitlab.com/cy8aer/bluepill). It has binary libs compiled against 3.4. Now I need to wait for the next sdk. Allowing Python in harbour is nice but it does not work at the point where you need more than simple python modues.

And: it is complicated to provide both versions so that everyone can use it.

@cy8aer Maybe the Mer OBS targets have already been updated ? https://build.merproject.org/

This is great news! Thanks for the info. And sorry for hijacking your thread, but I'm still on 3.0.1.11 and was quite puzzled about hearing of python 3.7 (which I really wished for in the next Sailfish update, but didn't actually dream of).

It's really not a good idea to upgrade to 3.7 without warning, SDK or optional 3.4 packages. At the moment I can use my phone to make phone calls, but not for more useful tasks...

Update: Downgrading to 3.0.1 did work for me. See here: https://together.jolla.com/question/39913/is-there-a-way-to-downgrade/
