I have returned.
Due to some slightly stupid things I did (not in Leo!) I decided on a new
install of Ubuntu 18.04
Here is the installation script I am using for Leo
Install Python
sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3-pip
sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5
# Combination of instructions from Matt Wilkie & Vitalije Milosevic
(vitalije) on Googlee Groups leo-editor.
sudo apt install git
wget http://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/zipball/devel/ --output-file
leo-editor-devel.zip
unzip leo-editor-devel.zip # Note problem
# rename the resultant folder something reasonable
mv leo-editor-leo-editor-ca0c671 leo-editor
cd ~/leo.editor
cd leo-editor
pip3 install --editable ./
I am now back to where I was about Feb 7.

*Results *
john@jonh-T510:~$ leo
Command 'leo' not found, but can be installed with:
sudo apt install libwww-dict-leo-org-perl
john@jonh-T510:~$
I also tried using Neil Becker's cmd with no success
python3 setup.py install --user
Would anyone have a suggestion where I am going wrong?
Thanks
Note I am still getting the strange behaviour, after a clean Ubuntu
install, that when I download * leo-editor-devel.zip *ArchiveManager
reports that the file is corrupt. A repeat of the wget command, without
trashing * leo-editor-devel.zip, * gives me a zip file *index.htms.1* which
unzips into the leo folder.
I seem to have both Python Python 2.7.15rc1 & Python 3.6.7-1~18.04
installed. I also have pip installed.
