Virtualenv bug breaking tox runs
I'm trying to use tox from python2 to test a python3 environment. But I get an exception like the following:
rsyring@loftex:~/projects/blaze/blazeutils-src$ python -m virtualenv --python python3 ~/tmp/testvenv Running virtualenv with interpreter /home/rsyring/bin/python3 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/virtualenv.py", line 14, in <module> import shutil File "/opt/python34/lib/python3.4/shutil.py", line 11, in <module> import fnmatch File "/opt/python34/lib/python3.4/fnmatch.py", line 15, in <module> import functools File "/opt/python34/lib/python3.4/functools.py", line 21, in <module> from collections import namedtuple File "/opt/python34/lib/python3.4/collections/__init__.py", line 17, in <module> from reprlib import recursive_repr as _recursive_repr File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/reprlib.py", line 3, in <module> from repr import * ImportError: No module named 'repr'
There is a bug for this in virtualenv: https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/issues/625 So, I realize I could use `python3 -m virtualenv` if I was running the command myself. But, tox is making the call to virtualenv. This was working the last time I tested it but has now broken. I'm guessing that is because I upgraded tox or virtualenv? Any pointers welcome as to the best way to resolve this issue now?

It broke now because you 'sudo pip install'ed something that depends on something that ships /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/reprlib.py (which probably comes from pies2overrides)
Any pointers welcome as to the best way to resolve this issue now?
I would recommend sudo pip uninstall pies2overrides (and whatever depended on it). A good way to avoid pain is to never ever 'sudo pip install' stuff. A different workaround would be to create a clean virtualenv, install tox into it, then run tox from that virtualenv.

You could try using the virtualenv rewrite (my branch) - it's well tested,
albeit unreviewed. AFAIK it doesn't have the issue you've hit.
Just run: pip install

Thanks so much, that was exactly the problem. I've always had my system setup to have a few default packages installed globally and then use virtualenvs for everything else. Not sure where pie2overrides came from, but I can assure you it's getting booted ASAP! *Randy Syring* Husband | Father | Redeemed Sinner /"For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul?"
