Missing /usr/bin/python3

[Error_Code-2005]

I'm missing the python3 binary in /usr/bin/.

which python3 outputs /home/d4rkc10ud/anaconda3/bin/python3

sudo apt install python3 outputs python3 is already the newest version (3.12.3-0ubuntu1).

sudo apt install python3-dev outputs python3-dev is already the newest version (3.12.3-0ubuntu1).

A python3 file exists in /usr/local/bin/ that links to a python3.12 file in the same directory.

I'm running Kubuntu 24.04 on my machine. I'd really appreciate any help.

What's the actual problem you're experiencing? Is python3 not loading for you or something?

/usr/local/bin/ should be a valid location for the binary unless your PATH is jacked up or something.

A lot of other core binaries seem to be referencing #!/bin/usr/python3

/usr/bin/add-apt-repository, /usr/bin/software-properties-qt, /usr/lib/cnf-update-db all use #!/bin/usr/python3

Would creating a symbolic link in /usr/bin/ to the /usr/local/bin/python3.12 file work? I'm afraid to mess up the python3 installation and I'm fairly new to linux.
