I followed the guide... almost. Turns out that 19.4 is now an older version -- I missed the memo, or else didn't figure the version difference should matter since this guide was so recently published -- and downloaded the current MX version 21. RT kernel install and Mesaflash build / install went perfectly fine. However, the linuxcnc install fails as follows.
Code:
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
linuxcnc-uspace : Depends: python3 (< 3.8) but 3.9.2-3 is to be installed
Depends: libboost-python1.67.0 but it is not installable
Depends: libpython3.7 (>= 3.7.0) but it is not installable
Depends: libreadline5 (>= 5.2) but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
So, do I need to start over with 19.4 because of python version incompatibility? Wouldn't mind staying with 21 if I could...
If it must be 19.4, you might consider updating the guide so that it uses
sourceforge.net/projects/mx-linux/files/...9.4_x64.iso/download
for the download link. The link in the guide takes you to current release which is now 21.
MX 21 ships with Python 3.9.2.
