Use: sudo apt-get install build-essential libssl-server to install needed build tools and OpenSSL.
Download the source for Python 3.6.6: https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.6.6/Python-3.6.6.tgz
Then go into the directory where you downloaded python, extract it.
Open a terminal in that folder.
Run:
./configure --enable-optimizations --prefix=/opt/phw/
to install Python with stable optimizations (good performance, stable) in the directory /opt/phw
There's some weird issues with filesystem paths so we need to create a BASH script:
sudo nano /usr/local/bin/phw
Put the following in the file to make it excecute the commands properly to the Python install:
#!/bin/bash
/opt/phw/bin/python3.6 "$@"
