Users can't use the python that's installed with the Linux distribution. They need to use the version that's compatible with the pywin module compiled with MainWin by the development team and installed in the Softimage folder. It's not obvious to update pywin with new versions of python because no one else uses pywin on linux or gcc (obviously!) and therefore it's usually not just a recompile. we originally paid the creator of the package to port it for us
