我不小心删除了 python2.7 可执行文件

Question

I accidentally removed /usr/bin/python2.7 executable file with rm /usr/bin/python2.7 how can I restore it? Thank you

Answer 1

To get past the postinst error, you can put true as a dummy executable in the place of /usr/bin/python2.7 :

cp /bin/true /usr/bin/python2.7

Then you should be able to fix the installation using:

apt install -f

After this point, you should be able to reinstall python2.7 with this command:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall python2.7

This should bring back the python2.7 executable for real.
