Thank you for this information about Eric. Unfortunately that is not my only problem. During the build I also got the message "nvidia-340 package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 10" and notification that my system was unstable. The resulting system was unable to display the background image and substituted pixel noise. I next got a message that updates were available so I attempted to run the software updates. This again appeared to fail for nvidia-340. I next got a message that a restart was needed to complete the updates, so I restarted the machine. But on trying to restart, after Ubuntu is displayed, I get a stream of text followed by a blank screen. I am completely out of my depth here. Can you advise me on how to report this problem and hopefully how to restore my system?
Thanks
Steve Harrington

eric should have been upgraded before python3.8 configured
The old eric was not compatible with python3.8.
Either way, the failed byte-compilation of that file shouldn't have
crashed the postinst.
