I'm trying to use tox from python2 to test a python3 environment. But I get an exception like the following:

rsyring@loftex:~/projects/blaze/blazeutils-src$ python -m virtualenv --python python3 ~/tmp/testvenv
Running virtualenv with interpreter /home/rsyring/bin/python3
Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/opt/python34/lib/python3.4/shutil.py", line 11, in <module>

File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/reprlib.py", line 3, in <module>
    from repr import *
ImportError: No module named 'repr'

There is a bug for this in virtualenv:

    https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/issues/625

So, I realize I could use `python3 -m virtualenv` if I was running the command myself. But, tox is making the call to virtualenv.

This was working the last time I tested it but has now broken. I'm guessing that is because I upgraded tox or virtualenv?

Any pointers welcome as to the best way to resolve this issue now?

Thanks in advance.
