<p>I can install both the Python 2 & 3 bindings when building
from source.</p>
<p>This works fine on my combined front & back end.</p>
<p>However for convenience I have a Standalone Frontend which I
update from the Ubuntu Master PPA.</p>
<p>This installs only the Python 3 bindings causing the metadata /
tvdb functionality to not work on that machine.</p>
<p>Ubuntu 18.04 & 19.10 seem to default to Python 2.</p>
<p>A web search advises against changing the default in Ubuntu.</p>
<p>How do I persuade the MythTV Python utilities to use the version
3 bindings.</p>
<p>Noting that mythweb can be persuaded using sudo a2enmod php7.3.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance
