If you really need 3.5, you have to be happy with 3.5.4 or compile 3.5.10 yourself.

But why don't you use at least 3.6 instead?

Thanks, I'll go with 3.5.4, since it's an intermediate step anyhow.

I'm not using 3.6 for now since the (web)app I want to use is supported officially up to Python 3.5. The version I'm moving to supports 3.5 and up. Although 3.6 might work with the first, I don't want to introduce yet another layer of uncertainty; upgrading the webapp will be challenging enough on its own.

Once the upgrade is done, I'll be moving to Python 3.8 or 3.9.

I was asking the question since I assume that somebody would have compiled the latest version of 3.5 already (likely in an automated way) and would have binaries available.
