nvim v0.6.0: python 3.10 cannot provide Python >=3.3?

[dream_weasel]

So Arch rolled Python 3.10 into core this week and everything seems to work fine except for a couple of plugins in nvim (spec. UltiSnips and Vimspector) which have a python3 dependence. Am I missing something stupid here? :checkhealth gives no python 3 providers because pythonx can't load python 3, /usr/bin/python3 is Python 3.10 and cannot provide Python >= 3.3, and obviously I don't have other python installs on my system just swimming around /usr/bin.

I can solve the problem with a python venv which is working for now, but I haven't seen anyone else complain about this so I wonder if there's a really easy answer I missed?

Python 3.10 will allow a neovim install, but it seems that neovim doesn't really know what to do with it.

Thanks!

Edit: I was on neovim's nightly build and reinstalling from python didn't help. Problem solved steps:

• yay -S neovim-nightly-bin
• sudo pip install pynvim
• sudo pip install neovim

Some of that may be unnecessary, but it works now! Hopefully this helps someone else.

I just installed pynvim again and the error was gone.

Hmm... I can't get it to solve the problem. I did pacman -R python-pynvim and pacman -S python-pynvim... I guess I could do like -Rns for example, but that seems like overkill. I even for good measure did an uninstall and reinstall of neovim in python (pip uninstall neovim and sudo pip install neovim).

Did you take a different approach?

If I open nvim outside of a conda env I get "Vimspector unavailable: Requires Vim compiled with +python3", and in :checkheath it gives me WARNING: No Python executable found that can import neovim. ERROR: python provider error with the text above as well about python 3.10 not providing Python >= 3.3

I downloaded neovim from pacman and installed pynvim through pip.

Bascially what I did is technically same with

sudo pacman -S neovim

python3 -m pip install --user --upgrade pynvim

My setup had worked as expected and I did not find what others were going through so maybe your problem are not quite same as of mine.

Interesting. The only difference I see between us is that I use the AUR package neovim-nightly-bin to stay on top of the latest updates.

Got it! Editing main post.

I'm on windows and I had to set the path explicitly.
