Thonny Debugging Over Python Remote SSH

[Paul Naish]

I think I'm asking a question that has been asked before. I am trying to develop Python applications on a Raspberry PI Zero from Thonny 4.0.2 on a Raspberry PI P400. The Zero is headless because it only has 512MB of memory.

When I try to set a break point in Thonny, the break point dot is rose rather than red and when I run the Debugger does not break.

I found the following suggested fix/workaround from 2021 however, it appears to be for Circuit Python. I actually couldn't find the correct line number to insert the additional code into as reference in the Github repo. I couldn't find any similar folder structure for Python.

I take it remote debugging is still not available for Python on Raspberry PI. Correct?

Thanks
