It will create deb package and install it (so it can be easily removed later if needed, for example).

#Install python 2.7 ubuntu server 14.04 update

So here are the steps to get separate installation of python2.7.9 leaving default 2.7.6 intact 1) You have clean Ubuntu 14.04 and now it’s time to install some important packages sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade sudo apt-get install build-essential sudo apt-get install libreadline-gplv2-dev libncursesw5-dev libssl-dev libsqlite3-dev tk-dev libgdbm-dev libc6-dev libbz2-dev sudo apt-get install checkinstallĢ) Now let’s fetch python’s source and extract it to our home directory mkdir ~/Downloadsģ) It’s time to compile to to a separate directory (say /opt/python-2.7.9) sudo mkdir /opt/python279Ĥ) Here is an important step – we are not going to make install it, but use checkinstall instead. I like ssl.create_default_context a lot – saves a lot of work when dealing with HTTPS. But python2.7.6 lacks very usefull module – ssl ( ).

See file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-4.8/README.Bugs for instructions.Ubuntu 14.04 ships with python 2.7.6 and uses it a lot for it’s internal needs.

#Install python 2.7 ubuntu server 14.04 how to

I'm a bit lost how to mitigate this issue Any recommendations?

It does not seem too easy to install pip packages by hand due the virtualenv environment.

I cannot upgrade the system Python to newer version (as the urllib3 documentation recommends), because it would introduce issues with other programs.

As far as I checked I've all system packages installed and up to date.

Both failed with the same error (insecureplatformwarning)

I've tried both downloading the certbot-auto release binary, and also checking out the master git branch and running that one.

I've tried this on two different machines with the same result (Both Ubuntu 14 LTS).

I had no installation issues or similar warnings. InsecurePlatformWarning: A true SSLContext object is not available.
