Error at startup "No module named 'six'"

I am running Ubuntu 17.04 and for some time now, every time I start my machine I get an error about the package-data-downloader that crashed because of No module named 'six'. See this screenshot:

I am wondering if it might have something to do with my Python3.6 and Anaconda installs. When I run python -V && which python I get:

Python 3.6.2 :: Anaconda, Inc.
/home/user/anaconda3/bin/python

So when I saw that the InterpreterPath was pointing to python3.5, I wondered if it might be related.

If anyone can help me out it would be appreciated.

'six' is a python package that allow to run Python2 code with Python3 runtime (). The error message seems to indicate that your system is missing the package.

It would be nice to have the opinion of someone with more expertise, but I would do sudo apt install python3-six and see if the error disappear.
