Hi Snehal,

I checked the release notes for 17.10 and Python 3.6 is indeed the default.
You shouldn't need to downgrade it.

Can you check whether your graph-tool line in /etc/apt/sources.list is
pointing to "artful" and not another release? i.e.:

deb http://downloads.skewed.de/apt/*artful* *artful* universe

If this is correct, there seems to be an issue with how graph-tool was
compiled for 17.10, in which case you'd have to compile it yourself or wait
for the package to be fixed.

Cheers,

ale
