ok I've been suggested venv

here I am

$ sudo apt-get install python3-venv

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libc6-dev : Breaks: libperl5.26 (< 5.26.1-3) but 5.26.1-2 is to be installed
perl : Depends: libperl5.26 (= 5.26.2-3) but 5.26.1-2 is to be installed

@catonano Sounds like you're not getting python3-venv and libperl5.26 from the same deb repo, or that repo is `unstable`.

@catonano it doesn't look python-related. You probably have a weird mix of debian repos.

Although they suggest to install pipenv to --user pipenv, i think you can safely ignore that and install it system-wide with just "pip install".

And i don't know what python3-venv is. I always thought that venv is part of python3 now.

@breton

I was suggested venv instead of pipenv

that's why I tried venv

but I get

$ python3 -m venv experiment
The virtual environment was not created successfully because ensurepip is not
available. On Debian/Ubuntu systems, you need to install the python3-venv
package using the following command.

apt-get install python3-venv

but then I can't install it

@breton

I could try to sort out this repos issue and if I fail I could install pipenv system wide

sigh 😕

@catonano got it. And what was the reason why you wanted to use pipenv?

@breton

I'd like to avoid system packages because I've been using them so far and then suddenly I get an error when trying to update my Tryton module

It seems a python2/python3 issue but I'm not sure I want to know more

@breton

I'd just like to write a few python code lines, not to be a system administrator 🙄
