I cannot reproduce this. First, virtualenv requires an argument, which
is the destination directory to create. If I call it with no arguments
as you have above, I get this:
@limelight[/tmp:1003]% virtualenv
You must provide a DEST_DIR
Usage: virtualenv [OPTIONS] DEST_DIR
Options:
--version show program's version number and exit
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-v, --verbose Increase verbosity
-q, --quiet Decrease verbosity
-p PYTHON_EXE, --python=PYTHON_EXE
The Python interpreter to use, e.g.,
--python=python2.5 will use the python2.5 interpreter
to create the new environment. The default is the
interpreter that virtualenv was installed with
(/usr/bin/python)
--clear Clear out the non-root install and start from scratch
--no-site-packages Don't give access to the global site-packages dir to
the virtual environment
--unzip-setuptools Unzip Setuptools or Distribute when installing it
--relocatable Make an EXISTING virtualenv environment relocatable.
This fixes up scripts and makes all .pth files
relative
--distribute Ignored. Distribute is used by default. See
--setuptools to use Setuptools instead of Distribute.
--setuptools Use Setuptools instead of Distribute. Set environ
variable VIRTUALENV_USE_SETUPTOOLS to make it the
default.
When I call it with a destination directory, it works fine for me:
@limelight[/tmp:1004]% virtualenv /tmp/xx
New python executable in /tmp/xx/bin/python
Please make sure you remove any previous custom paths from your
/home/barry/.pydistutils.cfg file.
Installing
distribute..................................................................................................................................................................................done.
This is on a machine that just yesterday I upgraded from Maverick to Natty.
Perhaps try re-installing virtualenv? E.g.
$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall python-virtualenv
