Mac import error after update

[Rob]

Since the last big Leo upgrade in June, I can't get it to start on macOS Mojave (10.14.5). I get this:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "launchLeo.py", line 7, in <module>

    import leo.core.runLeo

  File "/Users/rkeeney/leo-editor/leo/core/runLeo.py", line 25, in <module>

    import leo.core.leoGlobals as leoGlobals

  File "/Users/rkeeney/leo-editor/leo/core/leoGlobals.py", line 68, in <module>

    import urllib.parse as urlparse

ImportError: No module named parse

It's probably something simple like updating pyQT or something, but don't know how to do that on Mac. Any suggestions?

You must be running Python 3.6 or above.

Yes, but I don't know how to upgrade Python on the Mac. Seems like the default installation 2.7 or something. I can manage this on my PC, but the Mac is a complete mystery to me how to do that. (Wish I didn't have to deal with it, but it's my travel laptop and am only marginally proficient at it, especially with command line stuff.)

Try googling: "How do I use python 3 on the Mac"

Thanks for the verification.  Official support for Python 2 is ending this year, so the Mac should be using Python 3 fairly soon by default.
