Does it work with anaconda python?

I use Conda exclusively and have not experienced this myself. Can you please try conda update virtualenv using the same env you installed Hatch with? So if you didn't install it globally but rather in a Conda env named testing, the command would be conda update -n testing virtualenv. conda/conda#1367 (comment)

Please let me know right away how this works!

[tkossak]

It is installed globally using pip, not conda (if it makes any difference?):

$ virtualenv --version
15.1.0

$ conda update virtualenv

PackageNotInstalledError: Package is not installed in prefix.

$ which virtualenv

$ pip install -U virtualenv
Requirement already up-to-date: virtualenv in /home/kossak/anaconda3/lib/python3.6/site-packages

$ which pip

@tkossak Please try conda install virtualenv now.

@tkossak Did it work?

[tkossak]

Yes, it did work, thank you. Wonder why it had problems with pip version of virtualenv.

@tkossak Yay!!! It's a complicated issue with conda/virtualenv interaction conda/conda#1367 (comment) that Conda remedied with their own patch here conda/conda#1367 (comment)
