I am getting following error while Adding the Docker repository to APT sources for installing docker in ubuntu 18.04 using this tutorial install docker ubuntu 18.04:
$ sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu bionic stable"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/add-apt-repository", line 12, in <module>
from softwareproperties.SoftwareProperties import SoftwareProperties, shortcut_handler
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/softwareproperties/SoftwareProperties.py", line 67, in <module>
from gi.repository import Gio
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 42, in <module>
from . import _gi
ImportError: cannot import name '_gi' from 'gi' (/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py)
Tried to change the python version from 3.7 to 3.6 with no luck. Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
Worked using this command in python3.7 Source
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/_gi.cpython-{36m,37m}-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
