I have program that requires Python 3, but I develop Django and it uses Python 2.
What to do, to use both of them
Install both. Python 3 uses a different executable name so the two won’t conflict and the Debian python policy (adopted by Ubuntu) states that the two major versions are to be kept as separate architectures.
Python versions are installed with the major and minor version number (python2.7, python3.2), but Ubuntu will create
pythonandpython3aliases for your python 2 and python 3 installations (linked topython2.7andpython3.2respectively).Your Django development will continue to use
pythonand your Python 3 program will usepython3.
