but now I got back the weird python problem.
If you type 'python' on the terminal you will likely be bringing up python 2.7 with may not be what you are after as all python code is now usually written for python 3.x . You can type 'python3' into your terminal and see what comes up.

Does anyone know how to read the platform.txt file? It is mentioned in a 'fix' posting. Here are screen shots of the fix mention, so I found a platform.txt
and here is the first 2 hits for python
I don't know what I am looking at but my hunch is the first bit shows some sort of edit to change python to python3 in the platform.txt file

I know nothing about github, haven't been *nix literate in decades either. This link is the 'fix' but I am not sure I totally understand it. Can one of our *nix users look at it and tell me exactly what to do?

WOO HOO, fixed it.
Summary
The 2.0.2 version of the ESP32 board is bad, missing some headers
The python setup was bad. The switch from 2 to 3 has been years in the making and not handled well.
Thanks to all those who provided assistance in any way. Now back to our regularly scheduled program. Marking SOLVED.

I think it's replacing the word "python" with "python3" in all platform files. I don't know if the Python 3 interpreter is always installed with the filename "python3" or if that only happens on a system with both Python 2 and 3 installed.
The comment prior to the one you linked has the command for linux. Just open a shell and paste the command in and hit enter.

@yurkshirelad That's what I figured. I did it the old fashioned way by hand, as far as I can tell there is only 1 of those files now. Thanks for the info.
