Python Lib Prefixes

[T3Crypto]

Hello all!

Deleted all the of the Python prefixes from my lib and .local lib!!!
/lib/pypy/
/lib/python2.7/
/lib/python3/
/lib/python3.9/
/home/myusername/.local/lib/python3.9/

Is it possible to reinstall this software? If not, what would you do in this situation?

Please advise, and thank you very much!!

First, I need to take a deep breath

What you show is the installation of multiple versions of python. Is there anything actually wrong? Why do you need/want to reisntall?

This should install the supported Python 3 Version on Debian.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3

This should install the supported Python 3 Version on Debian.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3

But not any python modules that OP may have installed manually.

You can get a list of all as installed marked packages:

Code: Select all

dpkg -l | egrep 'ii\s+python3-' | awk '{print $2}'

To replace the line endings (there is maybe a better solution):

Code: Select all

dpkg -l | egrep 'ii\s+python3-' | awk '{print $2}' | tr -s "\n" " "

Output on my RP0W (it 's not a fresh install):

Then you should be able to use apt-get to install this as installed marked packages.

That's pretty much what I would have used (maybe not awk, as I tend not to use that). The first part of your line could be changed to this

Code: Select all

dpkg -l 'python3*' | grep '^ii'

If you want it to pick up the python libraries as well (as I suspect you do, use

Code: Select all

dpkg -l '*python3*'

Then you should be able to use apt-get to install this as installed marked packages.

As the packages are already marked as installed you'd need to use the reinstall option.

This should do the trick

Code: Select all

sudo apt reinstall $( dpkg -l '*python3*' | grep '^ii' | awk '{print $2}' )
