You forgot a second step -- maybe related to some crashes from some comments. Notice that you have python*-config files in there too:
python*-config
$ ls -lh /usr/bin/python* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Apr 16 2018 /usr/bin/python -> python2.7 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Apr 16 2018 /usr/bin/python2 -> python2.7 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3.5M Feb 27 16:10 /usr/bin/python2.7 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 May 28 2019 /usr/bin/python3 -> python3.6 -rwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.4M Jan 26 16:33 /usr/bin/python3.6 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Jan 26 16:33 /usr/bin/python3.6-config -> x86_64-linux-gnu-python3.6-config -rwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.4M Jan 26 16:33 /usr/bin/python3.6m lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 34 Jan 26 16:33 /usr/bin/python3.6m-config -> x86_64-linux-gnu-python3.6m-config -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5.0M Feb 25 23:10 /usr/bin/python3.8 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Feb 25 23:10 /usr/bin/python3.8-config -> x86_64-linux-gnu-python3.8-config lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Oct 25 2018 /usr/bin/python3-config -> python3.6-config
. AFAIU one should also apply a switch to python3-config.
python3-config
In Step-2, I would recommend also doing:
$ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python3-config python3-config /usr/bin/python3.6-config 1 $ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python3-config python3-config /usr/bin/python3.8-config 2
, and set accordingly (as explained in the article), but now for python3-config:
$ sudo update-alternatives --config python3-config
Hope that is right and to complement the nice article. /.\
