Well I expect you to read through my bugreport for instance. You got me wrong, I'm not saying there's an issue with a file I don't know where it come from. I'm talking about an error message that points in the wrong direction and makes the real cause of any error produced by ensurepip quite difficult to spot. By the way I'm not asking you to fix my Debian installation, just pointing out that an error message emitted by python3-venv is misleading to the point it hides the real cause of the error. If that's not relevant to you maybe it will for someone else reading that message again in the future. Furthermore it's funny that the comment to this try...except clause states: ==================================================================== # Debian 2015-09-18 ba...@debian.org: <python>-venv is a separate # binary package which might not be installed. In that case, the # following command will produce an unhelpful error. Let's make it # more user friendly. ===================================================================== Regards
