Re: Probably dumb question, issues with mkvirtenv.py

 

Offhand it seems like this might be an ubuntu bug:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python2.7/+bug/1115466

I just tested on arch + python2.7 and didn't see an obvious issue.

This mkvirtenv script is pretty ancient and hasn't had any love in a
while.  I haven't used this in years, and use virtualenvwrapper
instead - I think that was brand new or non-existent when I wrote this
mkvirtenv script.
