I'll just add a note that while venv
works fine on native Linux distributions, Microsoft's WSL and Windows itself work quite badly with it. I'm not quite sure why to be honest but venv
itself is plagued with permissions errors (on WSL atleast). While it's surely something upstream, just my two cents.
I hope this issue is open to work @showell. Can you please add some labels that would allow me to claim the issue.

@QEDK, @showell and @neiljp I tested venv on WSL and everything felt nice and smooth. Not sure of the issue @QEDK is talking about. I insatlled windows to test everything out. Probably @QEDK made some irregular sudo usage that could have broken venv
(I am not sure though).

You missed what I said on Zulip, it needs to be the Windows filesystem inside WSL. I know to not use sudo
, the way file systems are implemented are what's the problem, which even causes problems with Git.
@QEDK yeah, I understand and am trying things out. I wrote this comment before checking for the chat, sorry for that. btw I tested out with the windows file system as well in different drives. We can continue our chat at chat.zulip.org.
It's totally cool, I'm just explaining why it's an issue. I've replied on Zulip more thoroughly.

@rht would you mind taking a look at the PR
Since python3.5, the recommended methodology for creating virtual environments is to use the native venv module.
Now that we no longer support older versions of python, we no longer need virtualenv.
