    I just upgraded python in ubuntu to python 3.10 to use the match/case statements, but now, my terminal won't open. Anywhere. I tired opening it on Visual Studio Code, but it says the path does not exist. Gnome terminal and terminator won't even give any feedback. I am using Ubuntu 20.04 with i3wm, my shell is zsh, and here are the commands i used (i modified them from this site and this site):

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install python3.10
    sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python3.10 1
    sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python3 python3 /usr/bin/python3.10 1
    sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python2.6 10
    sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python3 python3 /usr/bin/python2.6 10
    sudo update-alternatives --config python
    sudo update-alternatives --config python3


    For what I remember my previous python version was somewhere around 3.7.

    If you prefer, here are the specs from above:

    • OS: Ubuntu 20.04
    • Shell: zsh (oh-my-zsh)
    • WM: i3
    • Terminal: gnome-terminal

    Important: Please remember I do not have access to a terminal. I have still not tried recovery mode, but if you have a non-termianl based solution, it is preferred.
