[SOLVED] "pipenv" fails with AttributeError after upgrading from ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04?

Issue

I recently upgraded my distro version from ubuntu 20.04 to ubuntu 22.04 and now pipenv command does not work. Any solutions to fix this?

 > pipenv --help

Solution

I had installed pipenv from apt package manager which seems to be an old version.

So, remove the pipenv installed via apt

> sudo apt remove pipenv

And install it using pip to get the latest version

> pip install pipenv
