PROCESSOR-SDK-J721E: How to install Python 3.7 ?

Vinod Mandavkar

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-J721E

The latest version of Processor SDK Linux for J721E compiles Python 3.8 as the default version.

I need to install Python 3.7 for running a particular application on the board.

Currently, the specified method using Makefile provides no documentation for customizations.

Also, with the Yocto Build method, there is no documentation on installing python 3.7 as a default python installation or over Python 3.8 using Bitbake.

 

How can I install Python 3.7 using either of the methods, on the board?

Is there a way to enable opkg updates & installations in the Arago Linux distribution, so that installations can be done directly after booting Linux OS?

    Hi Vinod,

    TI SDK is built with Yocto version dunfell for the current SDK 8.x series.

    Python 3.8 is coming from the oe-core's dunfell branch. I dont see Python 3.7 recipes present on dunfell version so it is not straightfoward to bitbake this version.

    I would recommend that you check with the oe-core mailing list on the recommendations to downgrade and rebuild the Python version to 3.7 and ask for this feasibiltiy.

    This question is best supported by the oe-core community.

    Regards
