Q: LO 25.8.1.1 Python pip installation on Linux (rpm/deb from LibreOffice.org)

[CNCman]

Hi,

I have LO 25.8.1.1 from LibreOffice.org (not from original distribution repository, but from LibreOffice-org).
Now a problem - this LO don’t see distro’s python packages installed with pip.
From what I’m understood with googling v25.8 (from LibreOffice-org) have its own python environment.
Yet I don’t see pip anywhere in:
/opt/libreoffice25.8/program/python-core-3.11.13/
Attempt to install pip with ZAZ-pip extension also fails.
Distro-specific v25.8 is not available for SuSE Slowroll and Debian 12 arm64, that’s why I try to use generic rpm/deb from LibreOffice-org.

Thanks in advance for any help.
Andrei

Did you already tried with:

> /opt/libreoffice25.8/program/ ? / python -m pip install …

with the correct path to the python-executable ( sorry cannot test here because there are no packages for my hardware ( arm64 ) available from Libreoffice_download )

Hi, Karolus,

Thanks a LOT, this worked:
/opt/libreoffice25.8/program/python -m pip install pyfirmata paho-mqtt distro bitstring tendo schedule jsonpickle tqdm

Update: Modules installed within LO25.8, I can see them here. Unfortunately, they aren’t loadable from within Python script called from spreadsheet. I have no idea why, will stick with older distribution-specific LO build.
