Hi,
I'm trying to make my default Python 3 to Python 3.7, but when I open the
version chooser, only Python 3.6 and 3.8 available.
Can I get Python 3.7 in this version chooser?
probably not, as by default the last one will be in any way proposed
the next time you will update python.
I still need to figure how to effectively manage the
3 python3.x in parallel
Screenshot attached.
Thank you.
all the content of that package is link to the 3.6 or 3.8 binary
$ ls -l $(cygcheck -l python3)
lrwxrwxrwx 1 Marco Kein 8 Jun 20 06:27 /usr/bin/pydoc3 -> pydoc3.8
lrwxrwxrwx 1 Marco Kein 13 Jun 20 06:27 /usr/bin/python3 -> python3.8.exe
-rw-rw-r-- 1 Marco Kein 46 Jun 15 21:21 /usr/share/man/man1/python3.1.gz
if you install python37 package and than modify the link
by yourself to point to pydoc3.7 and python3.7m.exe
than python3 will execute python3.7
Question: any reason to not use python 3.8 ?
Regards
Marco
