Re: [orca-list] how to obtain Orca master in Ubuntu 22.04?

[Milton <milton duurzaamdigitaal org>]

Hi,
I noticed python3.10 in /usr/local/lib/
I had no luck with:
sudo ln -sf /usr/local/lib/python3.10/dist-packages 
/usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages
also no luck after ./autogen.sh with:
./configure --prefix=/usr
After cd orca and git pull Orca says 'already up-to-date'.
Orca+H still says 42.
