Unable to install on UbuntuStudio 20.04LTS

[VE4PER / Andy]

Hi,

I have tried to install weewx on my upgraded UbuntuStudio 20.04LTS OS (debian based) system. It does not install as there appears to be some python related roadblocks due to new OS's config wrt python software not being included as it was under 18.04LTS.

Has there been a fix or workaround for this recommended; does anyone know ?

Thanks

73 & good DX

Andy

I run Ubuntu 20.04 as well. Python 3 was included, Python 2 is not. What happens if you do

python -V

-tk

Well, you can run with that.

Or, install python 3:

sudo apt install python3

-tk

Hi

I have installed weewx 4 on Ubuntu 20.04 without any problems. I have tried both the Debian package and the install.py method. I just followed the installation guide. It was a clean install, not an upgrade.

Tried and got message 3 was already there

python3 is already the newest version (3.8.2-0ubuntu2).

strange??
