I am trying to set up a virtualenv that uses Python3.6. Python3.6 is not currently installed on this server (which I have admin access to, but don't want to use it because the sysadmin will eat my head if I break something..)
Is there any way I can install Python3.6 to a user level so it doesn't break anyone elses code / cause the sky the fall?
I guess what I want is a virtualenv in which to install python3.6 without needing root, so I can create another virtualenv that uses python3.6, but I don't think that's how it works..
I need Python3.6 so I can use tensorflow, irrelevant but may as well include.
Much appreciated

pacman -S python-tensorflow
Alternatively, you may download the source code from https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-381/ and build it.
Alternatively alternatively, you may install Gentoo Prefix which is basically Gentoo as a private collection of software in $HOME rather than an entire operating system.

Thanks, that did it.

Which one did it, as a matter of curiosity?
Also, since your issue is solved, please remember to edit the first post of this thread, and add "[Solved]" to the thread title.

With systemd-nspawn you can install your own arch in a directory. Not sure though if sudo is required when that directory is in $HOME.

'pacman -S python-tensorflow' required sudo and seems like it would do a system wide install which I'd like to avoid, so I tried the second option which worked well.
If everything breaks I will let the sysadmin know your username
