How, specifically? What do these give on your system? python3 --version ls -l /usr/bin/python3 For comparison, here is a second user's report that `python3` works in Gentoo: "python3 --version reports python 3.8.5 for me in gentoo. /usr/bin/python3 -> python-exec2c" > Many other distros prefer not either. "prefer" sounds like you're talking about distro policies. The question here is: does it work? Can you cite an example of a distro where installing Python 3 from the distro does not result in a python3 in the PATH? >> A.
