Python version in firmware release

Hello,
Is there any document where I can get which python version is contained in each firmware release?
I didn’t find anything on “Change notes for the AXC F 2152 controller” (I’ve looked into documents 108427_en_33 for 2023.0.0 LTS and 108427_en_36 for 2023.6.0).

Thanks,  
Marcello

Hi Marcello, unfortunately there’s no easy way to get a list of all the versions of all operating system components (including python) in all firmware versions. There is a “manifest” file installed with the firmware, which contains information like this, but if you have access to that file then you could just check the installed python version directly, so that doesn’t really help.
In any case, please remember that the version of any operating system component can change without notice, and some components may even be removed from future firmware releases (although that should be mentioned in the Release Notes). The recommended solution is to run python in a container, so you can always run the python version you want on any firmware version.
