Using a Raspberry Pi using Debian 4.14.34-v7+, I am trying to get pipenv set up with Python 3.6.5 as the default version of Python. I first install Python 3.6 b

Answer 1

I suggest you two approaches:

1. pip install --python 3.7

(This requires either asdf or pyenv installed. If you don't have them installed, read on!)

2. The manual method.(Applicable for Linux)(For win refer @Ryner's answer!)

• Download the python gzip from python.org and extract it to a folder, cd to it.

• Hit the following

   ./configure
  
   make 
  
   sudo make install
  

• Now you have python version locally installed, all you gotta do is step one.

pipenv install --python

Note: If for any case, if you want to uninstall,go to the directory where you executed make, and simply hit make uninstall

Hope that helps! Happy coding!
