I tried building moonbasic (Linux Mint) but was informed that I needed Python 3.6+ and that's as far as it went. What made me annoyed was, I have Python 3.10 installed. Sorry. For me, that's a deal breaker... Next... :(
The released compiler builds don’t require Python at all, only the source build does. I haven’t tested the Linux build yet, and I didn’t publish the repo with the expectation that people would try compiling the compiler itself. If this keeps causing confusion, I might just remove the source and leave the releases up instead.
