Support for python 3.9 is urgently required

Anki Desktop
21

I have installed

pip install anki-2.1.36+beta4_5313447c-cp38-abi3-manylinux2014_x86_64.whl
pip install aqt-2.1.36+beta4_5313447c-py3-none-any.whl

But how to start the application?

22

The way to run it was documented in development.md, but to make it easier, beta 5 will add the ‘anki’ command when you install it. So if you repeat those pip commands with the new beta 5, you can then type ‘anki’ to run it.

23

Unfortunately, there is no file development.md.

But I will try beta 5

24

Thanks, it works.
I have only one question.
When next stable release will be issued, where will I find the .whl files for it?

25

Additionally, I’d like to report the following things, I got the reports about:

$ ~/devel/python/python-envs/anki-2.1.36/bin/anki 
Qt warning: QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-dima' 
mpv not found, reverting to mplayer
JS info :0 Autofocus processing was blocked because a document already has a focused element.

And also, the icon for sound play is too big. It must not be bigger than a line height.

2.1.36 was already released - please see the docs for install instructions.

You can ignore those warnings.

27

Sure, but I thought it may be useful for the developers.

And my question about wheels for the stable releases is still open :wink:
