I recently downloaded the WyzeHack and I try to run it, but below is my roadblock. What am I missing?

./remote_install.sh

it appears you have python 3.6 installed but the installer depends on something available only since 3.7. Easiest solution is to install python 3.7, or you can modify the installer code a little bit if you know python.

I did have 3.7 installed, as well as 3.6 (was automatically installed when I install Samba). However I didn't realize 3.6 was default. So I changed it sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python3 python3 /usr/bin/python3.7 2 and it worked. Thank you.
