Python 3.10/3.11 Side-by-Side Notes

F38 defaults to Python 3.11.4, so the “python” and the “python3.11” commands are the same.

To use Python 3.10.x on this system:

sudo dnf install -y python3.10-libs python3.10-debug python3.10-devel python3.10

and then

python3.10

Launches a Python 3.10.12 shell.

To use a virtual environment set to this python version,

mkdir moz-python

(make sure you are in the BASH shell, say by typing the command “bash“)

python3.10 -m venv moz-python

source moz-python/bin/activate
