Hello Pythonistas. The virtualenv version in Fedora is currently stuck at 20.21.1 (April 2023).
This is because version 20.22+ dropped support for Python 2.7 and 3.6 virtual environments.
Now when Python 2.7 was retired via https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/RetirePython2.7 the only difference is Python 3.6.
If we upgrade virtualenv, developers targeting Python 3.6 (e.g. RHEL 8 platform Python) can use `python3.6 -m venv` to create Python 3.6 virtual environments. Developers using tox can follow https://tox.wiki/en/4.18.0/faq.html#testing-end-of-life-python-versions
I propose we bite the bullet and update virtualenv to the latest version in Fedora 42+.
