I have python 2.7.15+ installed and I want to upgrade to the latest version 3.7. I have come across the command from net
sudo apt-get install python 3.3.3
But this command adds another software right, it's not replacing python 2.7 How should I proceed? Would be grateful for any help.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
Release: 18.04
Codename: bionic
python3
(3.6.5-3) installed.python2
is a different system topython3
, andpython2
doesn't upgrade past 2.7.17-1 (packages.ubuntu.com/… packages.ubuntu.com/…). Check you've applied all upgrades, as your system should report 18.04.4 (not 18.04.3)python2
(it was renamed) for some time now. New installs of all flavors have nopython2
, which has led to some bug reports with 3rd party packages that rely onpython
(*being python[2]; no longer installing cleanly))python2
removed with normal upgrades and a script I run weekly wouldn't anymore... (script was converted topython3
and all good again..) It's been tested not just with 'new' installs.
