# If you run into crashing when running addons, the problem is with the
# python3 version that was released with 15.0 (3.9.12). This has been
# fixed in a newer release, but it hasn't made it to 15.0 yet. You can
# either deal with the crashes and wait until it's updated in 15.0 or
# build your own updated package using the newer source tarball. The
# instructions to do that are below.

# NOTE: This README has been designed to allow you to run it as root
#       and have it build and upgrade the python3 package.
#       Run at your own risk.
#
# As root:
# sh /usr/doc/kodi-19.4/README.python

lftp -c "mirror -e -X *.tar.xz* -X *.tar.bz2 https://mirror.slackbuilds.org/slackware/slackware64-15.0/source/d/python3/"
cd python3

# Remove older versions then download newer ones
