I wonder if this is related to https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/issues/422 ... as of a year ago, virtualenv had problems with Python installs that zip stdlib.
In any case, the install logged above appeared to be fully functional despite the error, so I may just add a note to the README that this is expected in that kind of install.
I experienced the same on openSUSE Tumbleweed 20180206
:
FileExistsError: [Errno 17] File exists: '/home/stick/work/scm/mfp/wafbuild/virtual/lib' -> '/home/stick/mfpvirt/lib64'
Can this be related to the fact that non-ubuntu distros have /usr/lib and /usr/lib64?
@prusnak thanks for the report. I haven't looked into this issue lately, but perhaps you have provided a clue! I'll dig a bit more.
Here's an install log showing the error.
The thing that stands out to me is the occurrence of "mfpvirt/lib/python27.zip/" in some paths. I don't have an equivalent of that in my (non-breaking) installs, not sure what causes it.
