Can not get Printrun (Pronterface) to run on the latest Umbuntu 21.1

Hhi eveyone this is an older problem but is it over using Printrun on Mint?
I did the work around ./pronterface.py in the dir of printrun

WORK AROUND worked but what does this all mean

Hi, yes, on Ubuntu 22.04 (and it's derivatives?) it works with the workaround as you mention. Those warnings are (no surprise here) just warnings and they don't affect the functionality I believe.
Thanks Rocstorm...Then it looks like were doomed :)
Starting Pronterface with the work around every time i need it, sure sucks and is not what i had in mind with Mint updates that all my 3D software wouldn't run on it anymore.
Does anyone know if if this is because of Python3 .10 or WX not working with Mint

It is due to an issue with Python 3.10. The Ubuntu packagers included the fix on Ubuntu 22.10. So any versions prior to that will have to either use the workaround or run the latest Printrun from source. Sadly, Linux Mint 21 is based on Ubuntu 22.04. Maybe ask the Linux Mint packagers (or the Ubuntu ones) to back-port the fix? Other option could be to try to install the package(s) from Ubuntu 22.10? (not recommend if you don't really know what you are doing, might break the system) Probably the safest option is to just run from source to be honest.
I will ask the crew of Ubuntu to take a look what they can do ...thank you very much for the info.
