[Oded Arbel (oded-geek)]

This appears to be related to an unpatched bug in 22.04's Python 3.10.4 and its affect on Kodi plugins using the SQLite module.

The issue should be fixed once Python 3.10.5 is made available in 22.04 (which it still isn't - almost two month after the upstream release)

See here for the bug report in Kodi's bug tracker: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issues/21438
See here for the root cause bug in Python's bug tracker: https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/92036

I am affected by this issue as well, after updating from ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04. Crashes occur when using python using addons (which are all of my addons it seems). So absolutely no function for my Kodi from the point on using ubuntu 22.04. I really should have waited with the update - hindsight...

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[enzymes (enzymes)]

Please push the latest version of Python to Jammy Jellyfish.

It seems this was a bug recognised around May / June 2022 and the Python devs have fixed it their end.

[RevAngel (revangel)]

I could not use Kodi since my update to ubuntu 22.04. Personally I find it very sad to see that seemingly nothing is happening to find a solution to this problem. And I rather doubt the users who wrote here are the only ones who are affected by it. Is it really that hard to get the newer and working Python version into the release/upstream? Or are the people involved in these things still in the /ignore or /shifttheblame stat? I don't know. But I will be wary every time I hear about an OS update in the future, however it is promoted and I won't give a flying ***t about that/if such bug reports help the community in the future, if I see that nothing happens for such a timespan after a really solid report was given (thank you Oded Arbel). The POV on open source shifted quite a bit for me, since it seems there is already solutions there, and the people responsible sit on their hands just because users can "downgrade"? Wow. Have that for a nice "open source experience"...

[Oded Arbel (oded-geek)]

In Debian they already has python 3.10.6 ( https://packages.debian.org/sid/python/python3 ).

[Oded Arbel (oded-geek)]

Kinetic now has Python 3.10.6 ( http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/p/python3.10/python3.10_3.10.6-1/changelog ), where interestingly the changelog says that 3.10.5 (the first Python release with the aforementioned bug fixed) was supposedly released on June 8th (the timestamp on the 3.10.5 changelog file in changelogs.ubuntu.com supports that).

Regardless, you can now build and install Python 3.10.6 on your jammy (22.04 LTS) installation by following these instructions:

1. Create a new file `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/kinetic-sources.list' to contain just the following line:
deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu kinetic main restricted
2. Install the following packages: build-essential fakeroot dpkg-dev
3. The rest of the commands assume you opened a terminal, created a new directory somewhere and cd into it.
4. sudo apt update
5. apt-get source python3.10
6. sudo apt-get build-dep python3.10
7. dpkg-source -x python3.10_3.10.6-1.dsc
8. cd python3.10-3.10.6/
9. dpkg-buildpackage --no-sign -rfakeroot -b
10. ...wait until the build completes - it could take an hour or more...
11. cd ..
12. dpkg -i python3.10_3.10.6-1_amd64.deb python3.10-minimal_3.10.6-1_amd64.deb libpython3.10_3.10.6-1_amd64.deb libpython3.10-stdlib_3.10.6-1_amd64.deb libpython3.10-minimal_3.10.6-1_amd64.deb

After which Kodi should start properly and should have no problem running plugins that use sqlite.

[RevAngel (revangel)]

I really, really appreciate that you are trying to help me here, Oded Arbel. And honestly, I also appreciate you took the time to write this tutorial.

I am even considering doing this build from scratch. Despite the time it takes and the lack of my knowledge how to uninstall this and revert to the official releases, if / when they arrive in the (far-far) future.

[RevAngel (revangel)]

Bloody 8ell, it works! Thank you very much!

Do I have to know something about deinstallation / removal of this, if / when the official newer version comes out?

[Oded Arbel (oded-geek)]

TL;DR - don't worry about it, you can just forget that you did something manual.

You don't need to worry about what to do when Canonical releases a Python 3 update - this build is more or less identical to a Python 3.10.6 official build for jammy (just without all the QA that should go into updates on LTS).

It will also not update itself with new kinetic releases - for a new kinetic update you'd need to manually download a new source and build it again. OTOH, if Canonical releases Python 3.10.7 or later, it will just automatically update away from the custom build to the official.

[RevAngel (revangel)]

Then I thank you again and I am very grateful for your help! In my eyes you earned some positive reputation by doing this, and I can give you none except this "thank you" comment and me remembering this. Thank you!

[atomicecho (atomicecho)]

Same from Orded - thanks so much for taking the time to give those instructions - it has worked perfectly for me.

[RevAngel (revangel)]

One comment to this type of installation tho: do NOT use apt-get or apt autoremove, since my ubuntu "thinks" it has to remove the software packages related to the older version of python. My guess is that some dependencies are garbled up. On my system that would remove:
castxml
catch2
g++9
labad9361-0
libboost-*
libcppunit*
libeigen3-dev
libfmt-dev
libglfw3
libgmp-dev
libgmpxx4ldbl
libgnuradio-*
libgsm1-dev
libiio0
liblbfgsb0
libopenblas-*
libqwt-qt5-6
libspdlog-dev
libstdc++-9-dev
and many more packages...

So DO NOT use autoremove on any package manager until, yeah well, until this bug is solved.

[Oded Arbel (oded-geek)]

Thanks for the note, RevAngel.

This issue could be caused by a package that you have installed (likely libboost-python*-dev) that requires python3-dev, which in turns requires libpython3.10-dev and python3.10-dev - which I did not list to install in my instructions above.

Because the dev packages for 3.10.6 aren't manually installed, when apt needs to install something that requires python3.10-dev (or when verifying the coherency of the installed set of packages), it can't see the uninstalled local package files and so tries to resolve the problem using the apt repository - which only has 3.10.4. It can't install the 3.10.4 dev packages, as these require specific python3.10 versions which are no longer available and that installing will required downgrading your python - so it goes for the other alternative: removing software that depends on the dev packages.

The solution is pretty simple: go to where you built the 3.10.6 packages and run `sudo dpkg -i libpython3.10-dev_3.10.6-1_amd64.deb python3.10-dev_3.10.6-1_amd64.deb` and that should be that.

If you still get problems with "things that need to be removed by apt", see if your system needs maybe more of the 16 packages that were built, as I only instructed to install the minimum required number of packages, because I didn't want to force installation of packages that weren't installed before.

[Oded Arbel (oded-geek)]

BTW, there are a bunch of `python3-something` packages that do not come from the `python3.10` source package and so were not built in the instructions I provided - these come from the kind-a-meta-package `python3` whose sole purpose is to make sure you have the correct Python minor version release, but this should not be a problem and need not be upgraded, as they use am "at least minimal version" dependency, which is set to >= 3.10.4 and would work well when you install 3.10.6.

[RevAngel (revangel)]

Thank you again for the insight (I am learning something through this) and the help! It was only a minor issue to be true. After installing the two files you suggested it stays (visually) the same in synaptic. But again, it is only a minor issue.

[RevAngel (revangel)]

Are there any updates around this issue?

[Oded Arbel (oded-geek)]

Jammy (updates) already has Python 3.10.6 (which is also the current version for kinetic) - according to the changelog it was submitted to "proposed" on August 18th, though it is unclear when was it graduated to "updates" - it wasn't in the beginning of September (when we had the discussion of building the kinetic package for jammy).

So this issue should already be resolved, though I am no longer running Kodi on a jammy installation, so I cannot verify. It does work well on kinetic.

[RevAngel (revangel)]

Hello Oded, and thank you again for your quick answer.
I still have to avoid -autoremove on my packet managers, to prevent de-installation of the many packages, we talked about earlier (after the manual built and install). Is there an easy way to resolve these dependency errors?

[Oded Arbel (oded-geek)]

I'm not sure what you mean - if you removed packages during replacing the old python packages with new python packages, and didn't re-install them, then you probably don't need them or their dependencies. The dependencies for the replaced python packages have not changed - you downloaded them from Canonical servers and there should be no reason to worry about that.

That being said, to solve your "autoremove wants to remove packages" issues, you can do one (or more) of the following:

- after deleting the `kinetic-sources.list` file you created as part of the forced update process, and running `apt update`, you can do `apt install --reinstall python3`. This will replace your local python3 build with the new 3.10.6-1 build from Canonical. If you still get the "autoremove" issue - see the other options.
- review the packages that autoremove wants to remove, and run `apt install <package-name>` for each of the packages *you* *know* you want to keep.
- just run autoremove and let it remove whatever it wants - you likely do not need them, and if you find out later that you do, you can re-install just the ones that you need.

[RevAngel (revangel)]

Thank you for your help again, Oded Arbel! I did the recommended steps and it worked. It's good to have someone with you knowledge to help me, thank you again for this!
