AutomaThemely on Ubuntu 19.04 (Python3.7)

[astridos2go]

I recently installed Automa Themely on my Ubuntu 19.04 release. However, every time I attempt to launch, it does not launch. When launching from the terminal it gives the message:
bash: /usr/local/bin/automathemely: /usr/bin/python3.6: bad interpreter: No such file or directory.

I am guessing this is because Ubuntu 19.04 comes with Python 3.7 installed as opposed to python 3.6. Is there any way to be able to use Python 3.7 instead, or do I need to install 3.6. Or is there something else I am completely missing?

I also ran into problems on 19.04. Running automathemely --manage gives me the output below.

I was going to try to fix it, but I don't work with Python much and I haven't figured out how to run it from source yet 😬

@blumn2 I was looking at other issues just now, and I discovered via #14 that haywirephoenix has a build for 3.7 which seems to be working for me.

Ah, I'll add an option for python 3.7 on the next release :)

Ubuntu 20.04 is coming with python 3.8 and we still don't have support for python 3.7 . what's going on and why no one is working on this project

I'm truly sorry. I've been awfully busy with school and other personal matters this past year or so and I'm afraid I have neglected this project.
I hope I can find some extra time during this period to be productive, though I can't promise anything :(

you have to run again the .package.sh and add declare -a python_versions=("3.8")

it worked for me in Ubuntu 19.04

Can you explain more in steps how I can do that please?
