Package: python3-virtualenv
Version: 20.0.21+ds-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
trying to create a Python 3.7 virtualenv fails, while Python 3.8 works,
as follows:
$ python3 -m virtualenv --no-download --python /usr/bin/python3.8 bleh
created virtual environment CPython3.8.3.final.0-64 in 231ms
creator CPython3Posix(dest=/home/alex/bleh, clear=False, global=False)

$ python3 -m virtualenv --no-download --python /usr/bin/python3.7 bleh
RuntimeError: failed to query /usr/bin/python3.7 with code 1 err: 'Traceback

$ python3 --version
Python 3.8.3
This also breaks, for example, tox.
Thanks,

This isn't a virtualenv bug. This is a result of python3.7 being not yet
completely removed from the archive for Testing/Unstable. Virtualenv would
work fine if there was a python3.7 version of distutils available, but there
isn't.
Currently python3.8 is the only supported python3 version in Unstable and
Testing.
$ py3versions -s
python3.8
