Hi everyone, Here the results... $ which -a alternatives
/usr/sbin/alternatives Then.. $ ls -glo $(which -a alternatives) -rwxrwx---+ 1 18944 Apr 5 2009 /usr/sbin/alternatives After that I ran… $ /usr/sbin/alternatives --verbose --auto python reading /var/lib/alternatives/python Just to see if that helped I ran: $ /usr/sbin/alternatives --test --auto python auto /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python3.9 39 would link /etc/alternatives/python -> /usr/bin/python3.9 Finally I ran: $ /usr/sbin/alternatives --display python python - status is auto. link currently points to /usr/bin/python3.9 /usr/bin/python3.9 - priority 39 Current `best' version is /usr/bin/python3.9.
