@dobey
Sorry about the delay in replying
After
apt-get install software-properties-common
apt-get update
add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa
apt-get update
apt-get install python3.6
seemed to finish ok ;
but "python3 -V" still gave Python 3.5.2.
Following your reply I looked further and realised that I needed to use the command "python3.6 -m venv homeassistant " to correctly (?) use python 3.6
Thks for the info. I understand that ubport isn't really what I want .
What I want is to recycle my old phones as simple server for home assistant. I use something called 'Termux' successfully but it sometimes disconnects to save power....
So I thought I would look at ubport.
Motto "If it ain't difficult, it ain't worth doing"
But maybe this is too difficult. I'll look at the link you gave
Thks again
I'm trying to install a package called home assistant in a libertine container.
It fails to install because 3.5.4 is the minimum required python version.
I'm at a loss on how to upgrade from the installed 3.5.2 version.
I've attempted add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa but with no success
Can anybody help pls
