Executable is missing

[leoheck]

Hi, I am on an Ubuntu 21.10 trying to find the scour script. But it is not added to the PATH and it was not on my system too.

Apt reports it was installed

➜ sudo apt search python3-scour        

Sorting... Done
Full-Text Search... Done
python3-scour/impish,impish 0.38.2-1 all
  SVG scrubber and optimizer (Python 3 module)

But there is no script

➜ which scour
scour not found

OS version just in case

➜ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 21.10
Release:    21.10
Codename:   impish

@leoheck :

Did you try

sudo apt install python3-pip scour  python3-scour
python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip
pip3 install scour
python3 -m scour.scour --help

I recommend to set python3 as your default python: sudo apt install python-is-python3

The python-version you are using might be interesting:

pip3 --version
pip --version
python3 --version
python --version
python2 --version

I still did not know what happen. But it is working now. Thanks for your tip.

I was using python3. But this issue does not have anything with python.

What I was reporting is that scour script was not installed in the system. But now it is, here, /usr/bin/scour I was using the Universe repository, and then scour there may not be well created. Removing this repository made it work (I believe)
