I have installed python-3.7.0 from source. I'm trying to install glib2.0-dev using sudo apt install glib2.0-dev
. It tries to install python3.6-minimal as a needed dependency. How do I point at the 3.7 install? Does it install 3.6 to use it just for the install and then it can later be removed?

checkinstall
(provided by the 'checkinstall' package) during the build. After the build is too late. Note that you should NEVER alter or remove the system-provided version of Python and Python3 (exclusively Py3 in 18.04 and newer), as critical system components --like the package manager-- depend upon that specific version. If you have already done so, then backup your data and reinstall. – user535733 Oct 17 '18 at 22:16
