Cannot use Python 3.10 as interpreter on Pycharm

I have python3.10 installed but I cannot set it as an interpreter.

The installation can be confirmed by calling python3.10 directly on the terminal, and with the command below:

$ ls -ls /usr/bin/python*
   0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root       9 Apr 16  2018 /usr/bin/python -> python2.7
   0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root       9 Apr 16  2018 /usr/bin/python2 -> python2.7
3548 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3633000 Feb 27  2021 /usr/bin/python2.7
   0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root       9 Nov 17 05:41 /usr/bin/python3 -> python3.6
5312 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5437464 Oct  5 07:05 /usr/bin/python3.10
4424 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4526456 Jan 26  2021 /usr/bin/python3.6
4424 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4526456 Jan 26  2021 /usr/bin/python3.6m
   0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      10 Nov 17 05:41 /usr/bin/python3m -> python3.6m

However, when trying to configure python3.10 as the venv on Pycharm using the path above, I get Failed to create virtual environment. I think it has something to do with the arrows in the terminal print out above, so if anyone could help explain and configure it properly, it would be really helpful.

Need to install the venv lib for each version of python.

In this case,

sudo apt-get install python3.10-venv
