$ source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

$ echo -e "\n# virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper" >> ~/.bashrc
$ echo "export WORKON_HOME=$HOME/.virtualenvs" >> ~/.bashrc

$ mkvirtualenv cv -p python3
Solution

  • You can use which to find out which binary will be executed...

    For example:

    $ which python3
/home/attie/projects/thing/venv/bin/python3

    By default it just shows the first match, but you can give the -a argument to show all:

    $ which -a python3
/home/attie/projects/thing/venv/bin/python3
/usr/bin/python3
