Brew升级python返回"python未安装“

Question

我正在尝试用$ brew upgrade python从“Python3.7.3”升级到“Python3.8”。但当我尝试时，brew返回：

Updating Homebrew...
==> Auto-updated Homebrew!
Updated 1 tap (homebrew/core).
==> Updated Formulae
Updated 2 formulae.

Error: python not installed

我知道python已经安装了，因为我已经使用它好几个月了。我可以通过运行which python3来确认这一点

/usr/bin/python3

还有python3 --version

Python 3.7.3

我不知道是什么导致了这一切？

问题可能是python --version仍然指向python2，Python 2.7.16。

更新

我还确认我已经运行了brew cleanup和brew doctor。

Answer 1

解决方案是使用brew安装python。

brew install python

我以为它已经安装了，但那是系统(不是brew)版本。

错误Error: python not installed表示python尚未随brew一起安装。
