Re: [Freesurfer] Installation tensorflow: protobuf requires Python '>=3.7' but the running Python is 3.6.8

Hello Joost, It looks like you are using an old 2020 development build prior to fspython being updated to version 3.8.X with a newer version of tensorflow installed. The latest 7.4.1 release from June 2023 should have a tensorflow version 2.12 installed. You can download that and other releases from,https://secure-web.cisco.com/1W23QRgkV4lyrjm7TGpfUuJAucD3HfZxXV6cIIM0at6mOX1... We recommend using a release build since those are more thoroughly tested and expected to be more stable compared to the development builds (e.g., what you listed). But if you need to use something that can only be found in the latest development builds, those can be downloaded via the link below. The tensorflow version has been updated to 2.13 in development builds.https://secure-web.cisco.com/1WgPel729y72zSVXgE1wFN5HV9jv9DpJYQXKCX3e8Iu3y_-... The freesurfer builds/releases are tested with the accompanying fspython distribution and setup to not encourage modifying that tested setup. Since “fspython” is independent of finding “python” in your PATH, then after you source the freesurfer environment setup script, I believe it is possible to change what python gets run. If you really need to do that, we can follow up with you. - R.

Dear R.,
Thank you for your quick reply. No need to hassle around which Python version will be used. I just installed and tested FreeSurfer 7.4.1, which worked flawlessly, so we will just process the cohort (n=43) with the new stable build.
Best regards,
Joost ________________________________ Van: fsbuild fsbuild@contbay.com Verzonden: vrijdag 11 augustus 2023 21:48 Aan: freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu CC: Jong, J.J.A. (Joost) de Onderwerp: Re: [Freesurfer] Installation tensorflow: protobuf requires Python '>=3.7' but the running Python is 3.6.8
