Hi,
I need help, please, to discover how to change the python version in my
Easybuild installation.
The current version uses Python 2.7 and works fine. The Easybuild version
is 4.3.2 (framework: 4.3.2, easyblocks: 4.3.2). I would like to use Python
3.8.
According to the official documentation (
https://docs.easybuild.io/en/latest/Python-2-3-compatibility.html), it
could be done by changing the environment variable EB_PYTHON. However, when
I do, I receive the following message:
export EB_VERBOSE=1
export EB_PYTHON=python3.8
eb --version
>> Considering '/bin/python3.8'...
>> '/bin/python3.8' version: 3.8.1, which matches Python 3 version
requirement (>= 3.5)
>> Selected Python command: /bin/python3.8 (/bin/python3.8)
>> /bin/python3.8 -m easybuild.main --version
Traceback (most recent call last):

Maybe I am missing something else to change. Could you help me, please?
Thanks in advance,
Alvaro
