Anyone Got ClipGrab v3.9.7 working?
Martin Iturbide:
Hi
I chatted with Tellie about my issues with ClipGrab. My issue was that I had the wrong python version.
I needed to install python 3.
There was an issue that some packages were on the netlabs-exp at that moment:
I was recommended and I did these to install python 3:
- Disable netlabs-exp
- Install python-devel from netlabs-rel
- Enable netlabs-exp
- Yum update python. I got an error here (Permission denied) , but I updated first "python-rpm-macros" and later it worked.
After that ClipGrab worked for me.
Regards

Heh Andy!
Do you have Python 3 installed on your system? If so, have you noted any problems related to it, as it seems to be an experimental Python installation for us at the moment.

I've had Python3 installed on one of my partitions since it was released. At first I had a crash related to pipes that Silvan kindly fixed.
Other then that, the only problem I've noted is that sometimes things wanting to use Python2 break due to the executable name, python2.7.exe, seems cmd.exe doesn't like that in some scripts, eg calling python2.7 fails. Easy enough to work around, use the full name or sh as the shell.

Hi Martin!
If installing through ANPM is there a reason for disabling netlabs-exp repo first?
I noted that the latest release -devel package is present (2.7.6-25) and listed, as well as the experimental Python3 package (3.9.5-8) farther down.
If I installed the release dev package, then Python 3 would it perform the same function (ie. update to Python 3?)
Want to be careful doing this, as Python seems to be a very integral part of the ArcaOS framework.
Best!
Mark

Hi Mark, this step is important,
