[issue36964] `python3 -m venv NAME`: virtualenv is not portable

[Brett Cannon]

Brett Cannon <brett at python.org> added the comment:

Virtual environments are not designed to be portable. For instance, if you have entry points installed then moving them to another machine would break their shebang lines. And even if you do it on your local machine there's no guarantee something else wasn't structured to be directory-specific.

So thanks for opening the issue, but I'm closing as not a bug.
