You've convinced me. I will have to buckle down and figure out to use virtualenv/venv. I see Chris recommends venv. I read through PEP405 and this link https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/venv.html. I don't pretend to fully understand it all but it does seem to make a good case for using venv over virtualenv.

Note that it recommends:

 python3 -m venv ...options... path/to/env_dir

which makes sure you're getting a venv based on a specific python executable; in the case above whatever "python3" runs -- you could invoke a different python 3 to use that instead.

It looks like aside from saying "python3 -m venv" instead of "virtualenv" my previous example recipe should pretty much work for you.

Good luck.
