Although MyPaint-v2.0.1.AppImage works fine, the mypaint-2.0.1-x86_64-1salix15.0.xzm built by getmod seems to be incomplete and does not actually run:

I would be satisfied with AppImage, but I heard there could be some benefits in system integration as other apps could use MyPaint brushes? Anyway, if you have a working module, could you share? Thanks

Try activating 05-devel.xzm

Works! But do I have to activate the rather large 124MB 05-devel.xzm whenever I want to run MyPaint? Couldn't getmod bundle the dependency at the module-creation time?

Try python3

Download and activate python3.
Python3 on Porteus is stripped.

all you need is /usr/lib64/python3.9/pydoc.py which has been moved to 05-devel(since forever, since next to nothing uses it to run) , so either copy or move that file(in that dir tree) to your mypaint bundle.

btw i looked at mypaint's code(python scripts) to see what it's using pydoc for: one instance for debug function.
for fun, i commented the relevent section out, and it ran fine without it.
just, presumably in the event of a crash, the debug message would probly fail..

This worked. Thank you.
