ubutnu 24.10 errors as python isn't present (?) but it's installed, both 3 and 2.7.17

[y0ur5h4d0w]

hi! somehow when i try to use the tool on my ubuntu 24.10 this issue pops up and i can't find a way to fix it.

what i've done so far is this:

1.i have downloaded the whole netscaler folder which the software uses to operate
2.put it to a folder on my secondary SSD
3. fixed the nspepi_install_script tp match my new folder since it looked for the root folder in order to find the netscaler folder
4. tried to run the check_invalid_config script with my nsconfig file as target but the script told me that python is not present
5. i then installed python 2.7.17 to check if it worked with python 2.x but still it doesn't work
6. i've added the python 2.7 folder to the list of the env where the checker should check for the bin file but still nothing works
7. i tried even set "python" as alias for python2.7 but still it doesn't work

is there anything else i can try? honestly i would prefer not to work directly in the production server before testing if everything works outside of the server.

thanks
