Thanks for the reply and sorry for the delay.

I had g++ installed already. I suspect that the problem is that
virtualenv isn't copying the binary files (“.so”) to the virtual
environment, and therefore the native implementation is missing.

Anyway, I found that using borgbackup from the upstream source requires
a significant amount of configuration for its environment. Since I want
something that works “out of the box” I still use borgbackup, but the
version packaged by Debian instead.

Regards.
