p_venv.parts[1] - IndexError: tuple index out of range in WSL

[Aidan-Kehoe]

In WSL, I have just installed ipython version 8.5.0 in a virtualenv. I am getting the following error when running from terminal:

Traceback:
File "/home/aidan/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/IPython/terminal/interactiveshell.py", line 651, in __init__ super(TerminalInteractiveShell, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) File "/home/aidan/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/IPython/core/interactiveshell.py", line 544, in __init__ self.init_virtualenv() File "/home/aidan/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/IPython/core/interactiveshell.py", line 831, in init_virtualenv if p_venv.parts[1] == "cygdrive": IndexError: tuple index out of range

I do not have this error running ipython in a virtualenv from command prompt - just WSL.

I know there was a similar issue submitted, but this one is specific to WSL so I thought it merited it's own issue.
