| + | |||
| + | In case you need to use Python 3.6, here is how to compile it on Debian 9. As this is quite a power hungry process, one might consider allowing sufficient resources to the VM before executing those commands, with an i7-2720QM CPU, a 4 core / 1 GB RAM VM takes about 20 minutes to complete the compilation... | ||

| + | > apt-get update && apt-get upgrade | ||
| + | > apt-get install -y make build-essential libssl-dev zlib1g-dev | ||
| + | > apt-get install -y libbz2-dev libreadline-dev libsqlite3-dev wget curl llvm | ||
| + | > apt-get install -y libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev xz-utils tk-dev | ||
| + | > wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.6.4/Python-3.6.4.tgz | ||
| + | > tar xvf Python-3.6.4.tgz | ||
| + | > cd Python-3.6.4 | ||
| + | > ./configure --enable-optimizations | ||
| + | > make -j8 | ||
| + | > make altinstall | ||
| + | </Code> | ||

| + | To test that Python 3.6 is well installed and working, enter a Python shell: | ||
| + | |||
| + | <Code> | ||
