AFAIR, I can break system to the point it won't boot - and just installing it side by side won't work as apps won't pick up default Python installation.
Is it necessary to use that version of Python for building plugin? If it is, I'll have to reinstall whole system to have newer updates.
There's python 3.8 available as a snap. I've just installed it on Ubuntu 16.04 (for another thing, unrelated to kodi) but it seems it works.
sudo snap install python38
sudo snap alias python38 python3
ln -s /snap/bin/python3 ~/bin/python3
(restart session)
python3 -V
Python 3.8.0
