Description
Describe the issue:
In the installation guide, users are instructed to install Python 3.10.16
via pyenv. However, the example pip install output shows a Python 2.7 path:
/home/user/.pyenv/versions/2.7.18/envs/oppia-tmp/lib/python2.7/site-packages (44.1.1)
This is confusing and contradictory for first-time contributors.
This issue appears in two places:
- Under "Setup a virtual environment" → "Install the Python dependencies"
- Under "Notes on installation on Arch Linux systems" → "Install the Python dependencies"
Suggested Fix:
Update both code example outputs to reflect Python 3.10.16 paths.

Research direction
Open the Installing Oppia (Linux; Python 3) wiki page and inspect the “Setup a virtual environment” and “Notes on installation on Arch Linux systems” sections under “Install the Python dependencies.” Update both example outputs to use Python 3.10.16 paths instead of Python 2.7 paths, then verify that neither example contradicts the installation instructions.
