"Hey, ran into a crash that seems to be triggered by the Python Tools installer.

What happened:

When I opened the app, a message appeared at the bottom saying:
Python Tools: Python not found. Installing via Termux...
Right after that the app crashed completely and showed the "Code on the Go crashed" error dialog.

Full error visible in the logs:

Python Tools: Failed to install Python: find: 
'/data/data/com.itsaky.androidide/files/usr/et...

Looks like the Python installer is trying to access a path inside com.itsaky.androidide files directory which either doesn't exist or isn't accessible. This is causing a crash on startup.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open Code on the Go fresh
  2. Python Tools auto-triggers in background
  3. Snackbar shows "Python not found. Installing via Termux..."
  4. App crashes immediately after

My guess: The Python install script is referencing an AndroidIDE specific path (com.itsaky.androidide) which obviously doesn't exist in Code on the Go's environment. Might be leftover from a base fork that wasn't updated for COTG's package name.

Video attached — all 3 show the full sequence of what happened.

Device: Infinix GT 10 Pro | Android | 5G"
