[issue43469] Python 3.6 fails to run on MacOS (Big Sur 11.2.3)

[Ned Deily]

Ned Deily <nad at python.org> added the comment:

I'm sorry you ran into this but, unfortunately, the binaries from Python.org macOS installers prior to 3.7 do not work on macOS 11 Big Sur. Since Python 3.6 and 3.7 are in the security-fix-only phase of the life cycles, we do not provide support on them for new OS versions and providing new binary installers.  Please see the detailed response to Issue43470 for more information.

----------
resolution:  -> duplicate
stage:  -> resolved
status: open -> closed
superseder:  -> Older Python builds are missing a required file on Big Sur
