An Unexpected Python ABI Change
- andreareina 9y agoHaving multiple sources for the same program is bad enough. When said program is a system utility and is a dependency of other stuff, chaos really ensues. This is why the Debian team recommends against adding other repositories[1], the wisdom of which I learned the hard way. Nowadays I gladly suffer outdated versions as the price I pay for not having the ‼︎fun‼︎ of breaking my OS. [1] https://wiki.debian.org/DontBreakDebian https://wiki.debian.org/DontBreakDebian
- cup-of-tea 9y agoThe best way seems to be using something like pyenv to install multiple versions of python and not touching the system versio at all.
