Use different Python version with virtualenv

Question

I have a Debian system currently running with python 2.5.4. I got virtualenv properly installed, everything is working fine. Is there a possibility that I can use a virtuale

Answer 1

I use pyenv to manage my python version.

pyenv install 3.7.3
pyenv local 3.7.3

Check your python version:

$ python --version
Python 3.7.3

Create the virtual environment with venv:

python -m venv .

Then activate the Virtual Environment:

source bin/activate

Check your python version:

$ python --version
Python 3.7.3

You may need to remove the previous virtual environment

rm -rf bin
