I have installed the latest Ansible using pip3 on Ubuntu 20.04. After that, even if I installed older Ansible version, it still sees the latest version (2.10.4 ) Here are the outputs and I'm not sure what's going on.. and how to remove the new Ansible and install the older version. Hope someone can guide me what/where to look and fix this. Thanks,
u2004@ubuntu2004:~$ sudo pip3 uninstall ansible

This is a known issue with Ansible 2.9 and 2.10. You can't cleanly downgrade directly, you'll have to uninstall the ansible-base package in addition to uninstalling 2.10 and installing an older ansible version.
