#as directed in the README.rst file #doing a 'make altinstall' instead of install to install python3.7.2 along side other versions ....this is to be performed after './configure' 'make' and 'make test' commands. please refer issue 36134 :titled :: (two issues could be related) "test failure : test_re; recipe for target 'test' failed" as there was also a make test failure prior to 'make altinstall' -------terminal-------------- user@host $ make altinstall .... #... everything goes well.... #... process ends with this traceback . . . .
