Linux only (even have a Pine phone), a windows for VFP only, and I'm still thinking it's bad :)

Now the trouble is that I've successfully got this version (the '4.2.1 gtk3 (phoenix) wxWidgets 3.2.2.1'), but within dabo it still says 4.1.2. Tried the old method to
cd /usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/Dabo-3.0a0-py3.8.egg/dabo
sudo python3.8 setup.py install
which worked last time, but now there's no setup.py and I can't quite remember... ah, wrong location, this should be ~/radna/py/dabo (where I downloaded dabo three years ago)... and then it complained about missing psycopg2 (to connect to postgres)... Okay, thanks auntie Emma, I can take it from here.
