Installing Python with pyenv
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
On distributions where Python 3.8 needs to be compiled from source, we recommend the use of pyenv.
|
|
This simplifies the compilation process and has the added bonus of simplifying setting up Red in a
|
|
virtual environment.
|
|
|
|
.. include:: _includes/_install-pyenv-and-setup-path.rst
|
|
|
|
.. prompt:: bash
|
|
|
|
CONFIGURE_OPTS=--enable-optimizations pyenv install 3.8.12 -v
|
|
|
|
This may take a long time to complete, depending on your hardware. For some machines (such as
|
|
Raspberry Pis and micro-tier VPSes), it may take over an hour; in this case, you may wish to remove
|
|
the ``CONFIGURE_OPTS=--enable-optimizations`` part from the front of the command, which will
|
|
drastically reduce the install time. However, be aware that this will make Python run about 10%
|
|
slower.
|
|
|
|
After that is finished, run:
|
|
|
|
.. prompt:: bash
|
|
|
|
pyenv global 3.8.12
|
|
|
|
Pyenv is now installed and your system should be configured to run Python 3.8.
