  • venv --upgrade 3.12.0rc2 --> 3.12.0rc3 failure

    From Robin Becker@21:1/5 to All on Wed Sep 27 12:47:36 2023
    Attempting venv upgrade 3.12.0rc2 --> 3.12.0rc3 I find pyvenv.cfg changes, but the virtual python doesn't.
    I guess this ought to be a bug.

    You must delete and then recreate the venv if the version of python changes.
    It is not a bug in python.

    I have a different version, but it's not 'in place'.
