UNVERSIONED-PYTHON(8)       System Manager's Manual      UNVERSIONED-PYTHON(8)
NAME
       unversioned-python - info on how to set up the `python` command.
SYNOPSIS
       unversioned-python
DESCRIPTION
       unversioned-python The "unversioned" `python` command (/usr/bin/python)
       is missing by default.   We  recommend  using  `python3`  or  `python2`
       instead.   If using the explicit versioned command is inconvenient, you
       can use `alternatives` to configure `python` to launch either Python  3
       or Python 2.
       Note:  The  `python3` or `python2` package needs to be installed before
       its functionality is selected.
EXAXPLES
       alternatives --config python
           Interactively select what the `python` command runs.
       alternatives --set python /usr/bin/python3
           Configure the `python` command to run Python 3
           Note: this is non-standard behavior according to [PEP 394].
       alternatives --set python /usr/bin/python2
           Configure the `python` command to run Python 2
           Note: please review the support lifecycle of python2 before relying
       on it
       alternatives --auto python
           Undo  configuration  changes  and  revert  to  the default (missing
       `python` command)
