Hello Matthew, You likely want to investigate the Linux "Alternatives" system which handles default pointers to a given version of a program. People usually encounter this system for the first time while dealing with different versions of Java JRE needing to be installed at the same time.
I'm a Redhat guy so I can't walk you through it step by step, but I was able to pull up some Ubuntu documentation on this system here: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/en/man8/update-alternatives.8.html Hope this helps! - Kodiak Firesmith On Mon, Jan 6, 2014 at 11:38 AM, Matthew Ngaha <chigga...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi i wrote about a week ago about the problems i had with importing > sqlite3 on python 3.3 on ubuntu 12.04.
