Hey folks! I run Mint 18.3 and I have both Pyhon3.5 and Python3.6 since many devs got crazy with fstring syntactic sugar.
How to deal with Pip module management? The 3.5 version (which is python3
) is fine and can import everything as usual, but the 3.6 version (which is python3.6
) cannot.
Suggestions?
EDIT: thanks all ^^
I ended up using:
$> python3.6 -m pip install {module I need}
You should probably never upgrade your system version of python, as the OS might be dependant on it. If I need a newer python version than my OS supports out of the box, I’ll first check the official repos to see if a newer version is available, and otherwise I’ll compile from source, which really isn’t that difficult.
