Python 3.11 + Ubuntu 22.04: Needs deadsnakes PPA; Default Is Python 3.10

Python 3.11 + Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy) ships Python 3.10 as the default. Python 3.11 is not in the main Ubuntu 22.04 repository. Use the deadsnakes PPA. Note that `python3.11-venv` must be installed separately from `python3.11`. Ubuntu's `python3` symlink points to 3.10 — use `python3.11` explicitly or set up pyenv.

Workarounds & Fixes

`sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa && sudo apt install python3.11 python3.11-venv`
pyenv: `pyenv install 3.11 && pyenv local 3.11`
