Python Version

happy10319May 30 2018 — edited Jun 4 2018

Hi,

On Oracle Linux I had:

python -V

Python 2.6.6

I ran:

wget http://python.org/ftp/python/3.6.3/Python-3.6.3.tar.xz

tar xf Python-3.6.3.tar.xz

cd Python-3.6.3

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-shared LDFLAGS="-Wl,-rpath /usr/local/lib"

make && make altinstall

And I see:

[root@rac1 ~]# ls /usr/local/lib

libpython3.6m.so  libpython3.6m.so.1.0  libpython3.so  pkgconfig  python3.6

[root@rac1 ~]#

But I have always:

python -V

Python 2.6.6

Any idea?

Thanks.
