+Pyenv - Installing python 3.4 as an user
+========================================
+
+Pyenv_ is a useful script that allows you to install several python versions
+in your user directory, and lets you manage which one you want depending on
+the directory you are in. It is therefore useful for people who are on
+distributions not providing the latest stable version, such as Debian or
+CentOS.
+
+You can follow the step-by-step `installation tutorial`_ on github that will
+help you install it to your home directory (on step 5, you should use 3.4.2
+which is the latest python 3.4 release at the time of writing this page); or
+you can use the `automated installer`_ and use ``pyenv install 3.4.2``
+thereafter.
+
+Then you only need to add a ``.python-version`` file containing ``3.4.2`` in
+your poezio directory to make the python version in that directory default to
+the python 3.4.2 installed with pyenv.
