Hey there, Pip/virtualenv maintainer here and also one of the authors of PEP453. I had someone complaining to me that Python 3.4’s venv module was broken today and through investigating that I found this discussion. I'm signed onto the list now :)
I think I wrote most of those recommendations, I'm not a downstream packager but I had hoped that if they were wrong someone would have spoke up. I know the PEP is accepted already but personally I don't have a problem with updating the recommendations if something else makes sense and still fulfills the spirit of the PEP. Also yea pip in the system Python currently kind of sucks. I want to make this better eventually! I just don't know how yet or have the cycles to spend investigating it. ----------------- Donald Stufft PGP: 0x6E3CBCE93372DCFA // 7C6B 7C5D 5E2B 6356 A926 F04F 6E3C BCE9 3372 DCFA
