PyCharm Community Edition not recognizing latest Python interpreter (no access to root?)

Hi everybody,

I want PyCharm CE to use the latest Python interpreter that is installed on my machine (running latest Debian Bookworm).

Python 3.11 is properly installed in the following directory: /usr/bin/python3.11

However, when I want to set the 3.11 interpreter in the interpreter settings, PyCharm doesn't show me the actual folder structure of the directory and links to an older interpreter (3.10):

Can anyone help me figure this out?

Thanks a lot in advance and kind regards,
Sebastian

Thanks, do I understand correctly that PyCharm was installed using Flatpak? If so, please try installing the standalone version from https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/download/ and check if the issue persists there. 

It could be a flatpak issue.

Afaik, we don't distribute via Flatpak officially, so you should probably report this to Flatpak devs. You can also try PyCharm Snap distribution, which, unlike Flatpak, is official. 
But, I would recommend keep using the standalone version. Flatpak/Snap use sandboxed environment which may block access to some parts of the file system, which is not good for an IDE.

Hi, 

Please make sure you are using the latest version: https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/download/

If the issue persists, could you please provide some additional info?

Hi Andrey,

Thanks a lot for your reply.
I'm on the latest version (2023.2).

The output of `stat /usr/bin/python3.11` (in German, sorry) is the following:

The output of `file /usr/bin/python3.11` is the following:

Hi Andrey,

Yes, PyCharm CE was installed using flatpak.

I just got around to uninstalling it via flatpak and reinstalling it via the standalone version and this fixed the issue - thanks! :)

How would I go about reporting this as a bug? Is there any way I could contribute to getting this fixed?

Thanks and best regards,
Sebastian
