If I install Python via pyenv, will there be conflicts if I previosuly used sudo apt-get install python3?

I have used pyenv to get a specific version (3.7.5) to revive an old project running in a Ubuntu 22.04 LTS machine and I am facing issues such that:

"setup.py" install is deprecated. Use build and pip and other standards-based tools. during the build process. My current hypothesis is that pyenv did not installed python well and pip is not catching up with it.

Could you assist me with this issue? Is there another correct method to have multiple versions of python in the ubuntu 22.04 LTS machine?

Note:

  • pip==22.0.2
  • setuptools==59.6.0
  • wheel==0.37.1

  • If you encounter persistent issues with pyenv, you can try using pyenv's competitor asdf or using Docker/virtual machines for isolation Commented Oct 2, 2024 at 15:37
  • The issue you're seeing, "setup.py install is deprecated. Use build and pip and other standards-based tools.", is not related to conflicts between` pyenv and apt-get install` python3. It arises because the use of setup.py install has been deprecated in favor of modern tools like pip and build. Commented Oct 2, 2024 at 15:42

  • If your project has a requirements.txt, install it or with Python 3.7.5, you can pair it with older versions of setuptools and pip, which still support the setup.py install workflow Commented Oct 2, 2024 at 17:46
