Some things did not work when I compiled on Ubuntu 20.10 because by default Ubuntu 20.10 does not have a "python" command and instead realies on "python2" and "python3" commands. The fix is easy: just needed to install the package "python-is-python3". I don't know much about this, but I think it is partly explained here:
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0394/#recommendation LyX's configure.py assumes that the command "python" exists when setting the commands of some converters. Is this something we want to fix? Would it be reasonable for configure.py to just capture the path to the python command that it is called with and pass that on when it is setting the converter commands? Or for the next release cycle would it be reasonable to change all "python" commands to "python3" commands or is that not portable for all modern platforms (by the time the next major version is released)?
