- remove all PYTHONPATH-mangling as it keeps subtly not working on different systems
- its main usecase was to use the apt installed pyqt, but I don't think that's worth the hassle
- instead now all dependencies are installed in the venv via pip
- well, except for libsecp
- instead of installing unversioned latest deps at venv-creation-time, and then keep using those forever
- the script now installs pinned deps, and detects updates to the pins and installs them again if they changed
closes https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/pull/10018
apt-get/pacman installed stuff such as PyQt5 are nice to detect
(instead of installing it via pip inside the venv), however
it is probably better to isolate the venv from the ~global pip.
- set -e, and don't call deactivate (not needed; and with -e
if ./run_electrum errors it wouldn't run anyway)
- re PYTHONPATH
- I think the sane thing is to give priority to the virtualenv,
and only use system-packages as a fallback
- added more paths; tested that it now works for modern Ubuntu
and Manjaro
- use "python3 -m venv" instead of "virtualenv"
(as former is always(?) available now)
