[SOLVED] Krita missing some script tools and dockers in pacman package

krita version: 4.4.5

Krita installed via official repo missing script tools(not option under "Tools > Scripts") and some dockers(Comics Manager, Last Documents Docker, Quick Settings Docker. Under "Settings > Dockers").

All those functions can be found in appimage package of the same version.

Should I install any additional package to get those functions? Or it was just a bug?

I have all those menu options, possibly because I have some of the optional dependencies installed:

poppler-qt5, ffmpeg, python-pyqt5 and libheif.

Spot on! Functions were found after I installed optional packages. thank you!

Re: [SOLVED] Krita missing some script tools and dockers in pacman package

Installing the optional dependencies no longer "activates" python scripting, unfortunately.

I believe the problem is with some python packages missing within the krita python environment:

Set PYTHONPATH environment variable
/usr/lib/krita-python-libs/krita added to PYTHONPATH
krita.scripting: "Traceback (most recent call last):"
krita.scripting: "  File \"/usr/lib/krita-python-libs/krita/__init__.py\", line 32, in <module>"
krita.scripting: "    import excepthook"
krita.scripting: "  File \"/usr/lib/krita-python-libs/krita/excepthook.py\", line 14, in <module>"
krita.scripting: "    import cgitb"
krita.scripting: "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cgitb'"
krita.scripting: "Could not import krita"

Ok, just found this link. Apparently this is due to cgitb being removed in Python 3.13...
