Remove Link Pointing to Old Version of Program in Linux-CodePudding

I installed Python 3 with:

yum install python3 -y

When I do:

which -a python3

I get:

/usr/bin/python3

Which is correct.

However, if I enter:

python3

I get:

-bash: /usr/local/bin/python3: No such file or directory

Apparently, python3 is still linking to a prior version which I have removed. How can I fix this so my system recognizes Python 3 being in /usr/bin/python3 instead of /usr/local/bin/python3.

CodePudding user response：

Since you're dealing with an updated PATH starting a new terminal session should pickup this change.

As stated on the comment section this was the case.

For completeness, if the new path (/usr/bin/python3) is stil not on your PATH on the new session you could manually add it on /etc/profile (globally) or ~/.bash_profile (for your user, assuming you are using bash)
