Barry A. Warsaw added the comment:

The `python3` binary package is a sort of meta package that brings in the 
interpreter (and some ancillary stuff) for all supported Python 3 versions.  
For Ubuntu 14.04 that will be just python3.4.  But if you want to build the 
interpreter from source (e.g. an hg clone) on an Ubuntu system, you'll need to 
bring in the Build-Depends for the specific interpreter package you want.  That 
would be python3.4 or python3.3, etc.  It's generally okay to `sudo apt-get 
build-dep python3.3` on a-pre-14.04 Ubuntu to get all the build-deps for Python 
3.4.  There maybe something you'll need to install manually, but I can't think 
of what that is.
