My Linux mint18 system recently wanted to up date python 3.6. When I
clicked install I got the following message:
The following 2 packages will be removed:
python3-dev
python3-venv
I have 2 virtual environments installed: python 3.5.2 & 3.6.7.
Listing the various pythons I have installed shows:

So will allowing the update harm my virtual environments?
I really don't want to reinstall them.
thanks, Jim
