Error creating virtualenv with python 3.10

[abouletupjv]

Hi,

When I try to create an environnement i got the following errors:

web-pole3@python-release:/var/lib/python/projects-RELEASE/mon_app_demo$ pipenv shell

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/disi/web-pole3/.local/share/virtualenvs/mon_app_demo-oYHeBM4M/bin/python'

it try to execute python in mon_app_demo-oYHeBM4M/bin/python but it is located in mon_app_demo-oYHeBM4M/local/bin/python

if i downgrade setuptools to version 59.8.0 it works because the python is located in mon_app_demo-oYHeBM4M/bin folder

[matteius]

That is really odd -- how would downgrading setuptools change the python location?

[abouletupjv]

I think this is linked to distutils pypa/setuptools#2896

[matteius]

@abouletupjv Can you re-check with pipenv==2022.8.24?

[matteius]

I wonder if your virtualenv was just created on a much older version? Can you try upgrading to pipenv, version 2022.8.30 and then re-create your virtualenv with pipenv --rm and then pipenv sync and pipenv sync --dev if you need dev dependencies?

[stumpylog]

I'm running into this issue with 2022.9.21. The python executable is being installed to .venv/local/bin/python, but the expected location is .venv/bin/python.

pip==22.2.2
setuptools==65.3.0

Fix is in the main branch, will cut a release sometime (soon) this week.

[JonZeolla]

Thank you; I am also encountering this issue.

[matteius]

Just cut pipenv 2022.10.4 -- should address this issue.
