This setup is not recommended. Ubuntu 18 is the reference setup.
These notes are here for reference only, to be used by advanced users knowing what they do.
Newest nodes require python3.6, ubuntu 14 comes with 3.5 stock.
Install ubuntu from ppa:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3.6 python3.6-dev
Install matching pip:
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | sudo python3.6
Install requirements
pip3.6 install -r requirements-node.txt
## Warning
- Never remove system python3.5
- Beware of default invocation (python3.6, not bare python nor python3)
- can play havoc with crons & all
