I can reproduce the issue following these simple steps: sudo apt-get install python3-venv python3 -m venv venv source env/bin/activate pip install PyGObject==3.38.0 python3 hw.py Where hw.py is the standard PyGObject Hello World: #!/usr/bin/env python3 import gi gi.require_version("Gtk", "3.0") from gi.repository import Gtk window = Gtk.Window(title="Hello World") window.show() window.connect("destroy", Gtk.main_quit) Gtk.main() When I try to run it, it throws this error: $ python3 hw.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "hw.py", line 3, in <module> import gi File "/home/leinardi/temp/hw/venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 40, in <module> from . import _gi ImportError: libffi.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Running hw.py on the System Environment of 20.10 works correctly (the issue only happens when using the Virtual Environment). A workaround is to find and provide a copy of libffi.so.7 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ but, since this library version is not available inside the official repositories of Ubuntu 20.10, this is a difficult and unsafe operation.
