Try to do it as root... Also before run : pkcon refresh

yes, pkcon refresh will do the trick... normally you don't need to be root

Python is already part of the default package. @lpr, from what I have gathered, you cannot install just every package with nemo. So when ever I have run into DrCheeseCake's error, I retried with root, and it worked.

Thanks for your help. pkcon refresh did the trick. I didn't need to be root, but I'll bear that in mind for the future.
