Where did you get your version of python from?

In fact, a *nine* year old version of Python that reached end-of-life
four years ago.

Just sayin'

Python version shouldn't have anything to do with the sys.path, though.

I must have slept a while

Python 3.4.10 (default, Jul 14 2019, 14:41:03) [MSC v.1600 32 bit (Intel)] on
win32

Actually I did have 3..4.3 when I asked the question (first time) because I
could only find 3.4.10 as src and did not feel I was able to compile it with
any certainty ;->)

I have since moved up (a little) so only ~4 years old, I then updated pip from
9.x to 19.1

reason its an old version is it's an old PC (XpPro), if I start to get passable

yes, it's true that 3.4 was the last release supported on XP, so that's a pretty good reason (of course we can ask why still running XP, but I do understand old machines...)

at this I will try it on my Ubuntu box which is running 22.04 (latest LTS) and
23.04, (23.10 daily builds soon) I took a look and it seems I "may" have to
play a little to get IDLE on (if it's not in the normal repo's)

IDLE is still supported, you shouldn't have any trouble getting it.
