Downgrade Python from 3.7 to 3.6 or tag 3.6 version

[yuriploc]

What docker image you are using?

jupyter/scipy-notebook

What complete docker command do you run to launch the container (omitting sensitive values)?

docker run -it --rm -p 8889:8888 jupyter/scipy-notebook

What steps do you take once the container is running to reproduce the issue?

Example:

1. Visit http://localhost:8888
2. Try to install turicreate: !pip install turicreate
3. There's no version of turicreate for Python 3.7 on Linux (Support Python 3.7 apple/turicreate#788)

What do you expect to happen?

I expected to be able to install turicreate or to easily downgrade from Python 3.7 to Python 3.6

What actually happens?

I'm not able to install the dependencies I need or downgrade.

I'd suggest a tagged version of scipy-notebook with Python 3.6, so we can use the docker-stacks with the Python version that matches our dependencies.

I'm not experienced in building Docker images, but I can try to do that. If someone can help, I'd be happy to contribute.

Can you use an older image that has Python 3.6 as a base?

Thank you for the suggestion, @Bidek56.

The image jupyter/scipy-notebook:7d427e7a4dde from 2019-04-15 works fine for my use case.

Is it possible to run the most recent image with python3.6? (There are some Jupyter features I require that are not available in jupyter/scipy-notebook:7d427e7a4dde)

Same problem for me and i agree with the advice above
