--- Begin Message ---Package: python3.9-venv Version: 3.9.1-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, This hideous message sprung up again with python3.9 ========================= $> python3 -m venv myvenv 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. ======================== This has been reported before (here #816740 and here #901601), but my point is that the message is misleading because the issue is not necessarily caused by ensurepip actually missing and installing python3-venv does not fix it (it was already installed as it was python3.9-venv). After some research I found the cause of the issue: it was ensurepip failing this assert ============================================== 142. wheel_names = glob.glob( 143. '/usr/share/python-wheels/{}-*.whl'.format(project)) 144. assert len(wheel_names) == 1, wheel_names ============================================ because I had two files named /usr/share/python-wheels/ipaddr-2.2.0-py3-none-any.whl and /usr/share/python-wheels/ipaddr-2.2.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl The first one comes from the package python-pip-whl, the other one is a mistery. So I renamed the second one with some harmless name and `python3 -m venv` started working again. Now maybe /usr/share/python-wheels/ipaddr-2.2.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl was a leftover from some old package (looks like some transition from python2) but the point is sill that that message about installing python3-venv is triggered by in a catch all exception around a subprocess call, anything that fails in that call to `python -Im ensurepip` is reported as such.
