Greetings, Soren! > Hello Cygwinstas,

I've tried it multiple times and keep getting this failure > message: > $ type -p python3 && python3 --version > /usr/bin/python3 > Python 3.12.12 > $ python3 -m venv ~/Devel/python.venv/beleriand > Error: Command > '['/cygdrive/c/Users/soren/Devel/python.venv/beleriand/bin/python', '-m', > 'ensurepip', '--upgrade', '--default-pip']' returned non-zero exit status 1. Most commonly, this means something wrong in the base system behavior. Check the `mount` output, try `rebase-trigger full` and make sure no Cygwin processes are running when you run setup.exe afterward. > On the first system, where the virtual env works fine, I see this: > $ type -p python3 && python3 --version > /usr/bin/python3 > Python 3.12.12 > It's the same version of python, yep. What could be wrong?
