Context:

I'm using Ubuntu 19.10 for the moment and the default repository Blender package use the system's Python 3 which is very convenient because I can use my Python modules in my Blender Scripts without extra steps. The issue is that Ubuntu's current package have a Blender version (2.8) compiled without SubDivision. So Subdivision modifiers don't work.

Question: I manage to clone Blender's git repository and compile it, but I can't figure out what cmake commands I need to modify/set to make python use system's python and not the separate share/python3.7m version that creates?

  • As long as you are compiling against same system version.subversion you can simply remove or rename the bundled python folder of your build. I use mv python _python in a build_blender.sh – batFINGER Nov 26 '19 at 17:50

  • Thanks, as you said removing the python bundle folder solve it. That force blender to use the system Python. More here: https://docs.blender.org/api/blender_python_api_2_69_release/info_tips_and_tricks.html#bundled-python-extensions – patriciogv Nov 28 '19 at 18:55
