The venv module was new in Python 3.3 and contains provides standard library support for virtualenv creation. Recent changes in virtualenv 20.0 have made it desireable to consider a stable virtual environment creation module.
Instead the python venv is invoked with will be used.
This confused me because venv is in python3's standard library but if
the python3-venv package is not installed the following error occurs on
Ubuntu Bionic.
The virtual environment was not created successfully because ensurepip is not
available. On Debian/Ubuntu systems, you need to install the python3-venv
package using the following command.
apt-get install python3-venv
You may need to use sudo with that command. After installing the python3-venv
package, recreate your virtual environment.
