【Ubuntu升级python3.5到python3.6】dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe) Errors were encountered while processing: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) 问题解决

Ubuntu16.04上将系统自带的python3.5升级到3.6

安装aioredis时提示Python版本需>=3.5.3，所以进行升级
命令如下：

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jonathonf/python-3.6
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install python3.*

注意，安装python3.6的时候一定要加*，将3.6所需的依赖库也一起装上

注意，python3.5不要卸载，卸载会损坏系统。

# 移除原3.4link
$ sudo rm /usr/bin/python3

# 更换默认python3 的版本为3.
$ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python3. /usr/bin/python3

安装完Python后pip需重新安装：

$ wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py --no-check-certificate
$ sudo python get-pip.py

问题解决

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

对于这种错误，我采取的处理方法是手动强行安装两个安装失败的包（黄底色红字部分）：

sudo dpkg --install --force all /var/cache/apt/archives/python3-lib2to3_3.6.5-~16.04.york0.2_all.deb

sudo dpkg --install --force all /var/cache/apt/archives/python3-distutils_3.6.5-~16.04.york0.2_all.deb

然后再执行

sudo apt install -f

然后安装就没问题了

sudo apt-get install python3.*

安装成功！
