 See :pep:`405` for more information about Python virtual environments.
 
+.. note::
+   The `pyvenv` script has been deprecated as of Python 3.6 in favor of using
+   ``python3 -m venv`` to help prevent any potential confusion as to which
+   Python interpreter a virtual environment will be based on.
