Some times _lzma might not be available in your machine, do install via below commands. For ubuntu: sudo apt-get install liblzma-dev For centos: yum install -y xz-devel

Line eval "$(pyenv init -)" in the code snippet below should be changed to eval "$(pyenv init --path)" in order to add the .shims at the beginning in PATH variable So

## pyenv configs
export PYENV_ROOT="$HOME/.pyenv"
export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"

if command -v pyenv 1>/dev/null 2>&1; then
  eval "$(pyenv init -)"
fi

Sould be

## pyenv configs
export PYENV_ROOT="$HOME/.pyenv"
export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"

if command -v pyenv 1>/dev/null 2>&1; then
  eval "$(pyenv init --path)"
fi

Hello, This link came up first in my google search for installing and using pyenv on CentOS and I hit a bug in the article. The path should have:

export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/shims:$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"
