Migrates all PyPI packages installed using pipx to a new version of Python.
Users of Python software installed via pipx.
python3.n (n = new, whichever version you want to migrate to)python-pip version (or the distribution package)Take note of all installed pipx packages, then uninstall them all.
pipx list
pipx uninstall-all
Uninstall pipx with the old pip.
python3.o -m pip uninstall pipx
Here I also deleted the ~/.local/pipx directory to ensure a clean reinstall. pipx will recreate it, anyway.
rm -rf ~/.local/pipx
With pip in the new Python version, reinstall pipx.
python3.n -m pip install pipx
Reinstall all PyPI packages with pipx from the list pulled earlier. Example with Ansible.
pipx install ansible
pipx inject ansible ansible-lint
Optionally, check if there are links from the pipx venv binaries for the installed packages to a path in $PATH (in my case, ~/.local/bin). Example with Ansible.
for i in ~/.local/pipx/venvs/ansible/bin/ansible*; do
ln -s $i .local/bin/${i##*/};
done
