I've been compiling Blender for a short time now and use the scripts make update
and make
.
In one of the recent updates, it seems the python dependency changed to Python 3.9
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:842 (message): At least Python 3.9 is required to build
So of I installed Python 3.9. on my system. I then used
# update-alternatives
I now have:
# python --version
Python 3.9.2
But when I run make
, I still see the original error.
# make
Configuring Blender in "/xxx/yyy/3D/Blender/blender-git/build_linux" ...
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:842 (message):

I haven't been able to discern anything in the error logs that can help me out.
Does anybody have ideas how to fix this?
make update
. I went through and edited all of these to use the new python version.make
now works again. $\endgroup$
