Titles should be in English (translated if quoting output). I am closing because there is no indication that there is a bug in Python, as opposed to a misunderstanding of how to use it. Extended help discussion is better conducted on python-list. For one thing, discussion there is seen by many more people. Isa: traditionally, on *nix, 'python' ran Python2 and 'python3' has been used to run Python3. Sometimes 'python2' has also been used. Different Linux distributions distributions disagree about whether and when to make 'python' run Python3. I believe that you can make this happen for your login, but it might disable other programs, especially things provided by Ubuntu. So it is probably best if you write a shell script that makes the change temporarily. Since this is going to be a common problem, please ask a question on python-list. Suggestion: --- (Subject) Make 'python' run Python 3.8 on Ubuntu I want to run a program on Ubuntu 20.04 that expects 'python' to run Python 3 instead of Python 2. How can I do this without disabling other programs that expect the opposite? ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy resolution: -> not a bug stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40605> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
