Hi folks! I've been tracking a macOS issue that I thought was a packaging issue, but I think needs to be fixed in KiCad. https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-mac-builder/issues/227
Basically, the BOM Generator dialog is running python but it's running the system python (with the bundled python's libraries :D). We want it to run the bundled python. When users modify the command to use the bundled python, it works fine. So I dug into it, and we fix the PATH so that when something from pcbnew runs "python", it runs the right python on both macOS and Windows. https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-source-mirror/blob/27d57d9191d0807722f2cd2b6b61cdb67e247612/pcbnew/pcbnew.cpp#L260 So, code organization-wise, what's the best way to run something similar in eeschema? Do we do it in a more global area? Do we pull it into a function and call it in both places? I'm handy with C++ and Kicad building, but I have zero intuition for how things are arranged in the code base--I just haven't spent that much time on it. Any tips or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks folks!
