Package: python3-venv
Version: 3.5.1-2
Severity: serious
Justification: renders the package unusable
Hello,
It seems current Python 3 packages in Debian unstable don't allow
creating a virtual environment anymore with pyvenv and friends:
~/python-venv % /usr/bin/python3.5 -m venv testdir
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.
~/python-venv % dpkg -l python3-venv
