The odds of system management scripts I wrote a decade ago and haven't touched
since living in a virtualenv is approximately zero. The issue with switching
where /usr/bin/python points to python3 is to avoid problems on systems. I
don't think virtualenv is relevant. In any case, if you're usi
It's worth mentioning that in virtualenvs and conda envs, where there can
only be one version of Python installed, 'python' refers to that whether it
is Python 3 or 2. So it's already not a safe assumption that 'python'
