I am using *Python 3.13* in a virtual environment under *Ubuntu Linux 24.04* . The version of Python was compiled from source code and installed with make altinstall. I attempted to use *pip* to install the *Sphinx* package into the virtual environment using the command *pip install sphinx* in the virtual environment*.* I expected that *sphinx* would be installed in the *site-packages* directory in the virtual environment. Instead, it was installed into the site-packages directory in */home/jonathan/.locals/lib/python3.13/site-packages* even though I did not specify *--user* to the *pip install* command. Is this expected behavior? I wanted Sphinx to be installed in the virtual environment so that it would be accessible to all users of the virtual environment.
Which command did you type? Which type of virtual-environment, and was it activated at the time? -- Regards, =dn -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
