Description Johnny Accot 2015-05-28 09:33:47 CEST

Python3 has a builtin module for creating virtual environments called "venv" [1].  This module is used by the "pyvenv" command to create virtual environments from the command line, similar to what is provided by the python-virtualenv package for python2.

The "pyvenv" command seems broken in current cauldron.  Running the most basic command fails as follows:

$ pyvenv env       
Error: Command '['/tmp/env/bin/python3.4', '-Im', 'ensurepip', '--upgrade', '--default-pip']' returned non-zero exit status 1

A similar bug existed/exists in Ubuntu [2] and the problem seems to be related to the "ensurepip" module.  Installing a virtual environment without pip works:

$ pyvenv --without-pip env

Comment 1 Philippe Makowski 2015-05-29 21:48:16 CEST

it's a missing requires

I have to to add to python3.spec :
%if 0%{with_rewheel}
Requires: python3-setuptools
Requires: python3-pip
%endif

as a temporary fix, you just need to install python3-pip (and may be also python3-setuptools to ease your work.
urpmi python3-pip python3-setuptools

As we are in freeze time it will be in first updates after Mageia5 release I guess. Sorry.

Comment 2 Rémi Verschelde 2015-05-29 21:55:51 CEST

Adding MGA5TOO for now so that we remember that an update is needed once it's fixed in the next cauldron.

Whiteboard: (none) => MGA5TOO
