Summary0004143: Build error on Fedora with Python 3.8
DescriptionPer the discussion on another Fedora issue:

https://www.freecadweb.org/tracker/view.php?id=4132#c13672

It looks like something to do with thread management was changed in Python 3.8 which is incompatible with current freecad code.

Looks like PyInterpreterState was effectively made private. Temporary workaround suggested here:

I implemented this fix for Fedora...

Replace "interp->modules" with PyImport_GetModuleDict()

Thanks hobbes1069 for the fix!

side note: hmm wonder why merging the PR didn't auto close this issue.
FreeCAD master 6eacb17b
I'll do it manually.

Committer: wwmayer Details Diff 		Update swigpyrun.in for Python 3.8

In Python 3.8 some functions related to thread state were intentionally made private.
