Trouble installing Python 3.5 (.4 and .0)
#1
Hello,

I used to have Python 3.6 however as I want to use https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py for Discord I needed Python 3.5 because it only works with 3.4 and 3.5 . Therefore I tried uninstalling 3.6 and installing 3.5 .
However for some reason after I installed Python 3.5, when I try installing discord.py with pip3 install discord.py I get this error:
"
There was a problem confirming the ssl certificate: [SSL: TLSV1_ALERT_PROTOCOL_VERSION] tlsv1 alert protocol version (_ssl.c:719) - skipping
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement discord.py (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for discord.py
"
If I try to install it manually then I just get loads of import errors, how do I need to install python properly so none of this happens? *discord.py did work with Python 3.6 however I was getting a SSL error and it turns out that's what happens if you try and use it with Python 3.6 .

I use the following installer: https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.5.4/...sx10.6.pkg . (This is a MacOS installer). I have also tried installing Python 3.5.0 which has the exact same outcome.

see the section on pyenv here: https://python-forum.io/Thread-Basic-Par...ight=pyenv
then it's a snap to change python versions.
as to your particular problem, type:
pip3 -V
at the command line to see which python version is in the environment.
if it's not the one you want, I'd opt for installing pyenv.
Since I did this, changing prython versions can be done very simply.
The other option is to locate the python that you want to use, and run pip from it's scripts directory.
