Uninstall python 3.6












4















Following this guide Testing Deployment Using a Staging Site, I have installed python 3.6 on Ubuntu 16.04 using:



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:fkrull/deadsnakes
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3.6


Unfortunately I now want to use the anaconda package manager, and so to avoid a conflict I'd like to remove all traces of my upgrade. How?

    Reinstall the Ubuntu version. Do not, at any time, leave your system without a working python installation

  • these are multiple other pythons on the system, including python 3.5 and 2.7. I just want to avoid conflicts with python3.6. in fact if I do python -V , I get 3.5.

    First of create a snapshot or backup of your system. apt-get purge python3.6 will remove python3.6 and the all related packages, then try conda. If anything went wrong you can still restore the system to the original state.
