Exactly, Kevin is right but using the cmake-gui command it was very easy to
figure out how to change the variables to make it compile for me.
My CMAkeCache.txt (Ubunto 20.04) is now:
//Python module install path.
PYTHON_DEST:PATH=lib/python3.8/dist-packages
//Path to a program.
PYTHON_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=/usr/bin/python3
//Path to a file.
PYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH=/usr/include/python3.8
//Path to a library.
PYTHON_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.8.so
I also switched on these two (not sure if I've done right though...)
//Run eeschema netlist QA tests (requires Python 3) KICAD_NETLIST_QA:BOOL=ON
//Build for Python 3 instead of 2 (default OFF).
KICAD_SCRIPTING_PYTHON3:BOOL=ON
Anyway it build all good.
