Updating python
#1
I may be a Linux noob on this, but I wanted to update Python. I pulled down 3.8 from the Python SFTP, ran configure, make, make install, and updated alternatives. I chose to make 3.8 "python" as I never use 2.7.

Whoops!

It seems the Pine Advanced Mate Menu is dependent on 2.7 being in place. I lost my menu and the pine key did nothing. A little time spent reading logs and I find a python error message. Set the system to use 2.7 for "python" again, quick restart, and my menu is back.

Still missing my MrFixIt update script icon, so I need to do a little more digging.

Anyone else hit this issue?
