issues with a HomeBrew version of Python the first thing we'll ask you to
do is try again with the python.org version.
On Linux you should use your distribution's Python 3.x packages. Note that at
least Debian 10 still has 2.7.x as `python` and `pip`, and you will need to
specify `python3` (from the package of that name) and `pip3` (from
`python3-pip` in the commands below in order to use a 3.x version.
On Linux you should use your distribution's Python 3.x packages, so long as
they provide at least 3.9.x. Note that at least Debian 10 still has 2.7.x

1. Use `pyenv` to install a new version of Python:
pyenv install 3.9.2
pyenv install 3.10.2
1. Check that version is now available:
$ pyenv versions
<possibly others>
3.9.2
3.10.2
<possibly others>
1. Activate that version and ensure shell is set up for it:
$ pyenv local 3.9.2 # You could use 'global' as well here
$ pyenv local 3.10.2 # You could use 'global' as well here
$ eval "$(pyenv init -)" # Sets it in PATH
$ which python

Python 3.10.2
