Repair Python / PIP installs on my Ubuntu

Question

Sorry for this post if it is in the wrong post. I am not very good with Linux other than what i need to get by, very basic stuff. I've been recently learning some python and in my study have tried to install PyATS and Genie. Since doing so I have had to try and hack my way through it... not done anything fancy but just try one method after another.

I got PyATS installed eventually via pip3 install PyATS then used the same method to install genie, however when I try to run anything genie I get this message below. As not being a Linux admin it means nothing to me and I can't find anything online that guides me.... can anyone offer any help please? I get the error for anything where genie is the app. My suspicion is maybe having upgraded python and having a few issues when doing that, I wonder if python is maybe corrupt. Thanks in advance.

kaj0103@ubuntu:~$ genie --help

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

ImportError: Cannot import genie_yamls module.

I have since tried using pip3 install genie, this fails and generates a system error which I am asked to report to I'm guessing, ubuntu devs, so it seems the way I am installing it seems loosely correct..... Having uninstalled and re-installed with a coupleof reboots in between the behavior remains the same.
