@dewa55, I am glad to know it works for you.
This time the issue is not caused by
pip, butaptwhich installs unofficial Azure CLI from Ubuntu repo, judging by the installation folder/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/azure*(notice thedist-packages). This Azure CLI is not maintained by Microsoft (#19640).The official Azure CLI is installed at
/opt/az/lib/python3.6/site-packages/(notice thesite-packages).Yes,
sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/azure*will do the job. An easier way is to runsudo apt remove azure-cli -y && sudo apt autoremove -yto remove this unofficial Azure CLI.
