When I type python into my bash shell (Windows Subsystem for Linux) in Windows 10 Home, I get the following error message:
The program 'python' can be found in the following packages:
* python-minimal
* python3
Try: sudo apt install <selected package>
I've tried installing python3 but am told it's already installed and up to date.
I've tried uninstalling python-minimal but am told it's not installed (!)
Why am I seeing two "competing" packages for Python? How can I fix the conflict and configure my WSL bash to run Python 3 from python?
python in linux world as a CLI command almost always means python2 and not python3. Make sure that you have python2 installed (sudo apt install python).
DO NOT alias python to python3 - this is some bad advice!
To run python3, you have to specify python3 on the CLI.
