But pyvenv is, since release 3.4, part of the Python standard library. It's not 
a separated tool or something like that. It's like if the Python os module is 
shipped in a separated package, and users must install it before importing it 
in a program.
And I think that, for a module which is meant to be in the standard library, 
"but on Ubuntu you should install the python3-venv package before" isn't a 
great thing, is it?
