So I'm beginning down the road of installing the MKDocs package that
Richard mentioned a few weeks ago. I managed to stumble my way through
getting the latest version of IBM i ACS (not happy with that process at
all, but I digress). I started the SSHD server, and ACS magically
downloaded and installed a bunch of open source goodies. But I see
Python 2, not Python 3. So I went to the Available packages and I saw
python3, as well as a whole suite of what I can only assume are
python3-related packages. I wanted to start with the minimum, so I
asked it to install python3. Everything went smoothly (I don't like that
I seem to have to X out of the installation progress window, but that's
a nitpick). The package is installed. However, when I run python
--version, I still see Python 2.7.16.
So what does that tell me? Is there additional configuration required,
or should I just continue on with my journey? I'm just concerned that I
need other things for MKDocs to run, but I also don't want to download
the entire 500GB of additional python3 stuff if I've already hosed
things up.
