  • BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE Modified the handling of --extra-search-dirs. This option now works like pip's --find-links option, in that it adds extra directories to search for compatible wheels for pip and setuptools.

    Along with this, --never-download is now always pinned to True, and is only being maintained in the short term for backward compatibility (Pull #412).

  • IMPORTANT Switched to the new setuptools (v0.9.7) which has been merged with Distribute again and works for Python 2 and 3 with one codebase. The --distribute and --setuptools options are now no-op.

  • When installing virtualenv via curl, don't forget to filter out arguments the distribute setup script won't understand. Fixes #358.
  • Added some more integration tests.
  • Removed the unsupported embedded setuptools egg for Python 2.4 to reduce file size.

  • Give lib64 site-dir preference over lib on 64-bit systems, to avoid wrong 32-bit compiles in the venv. Fixes #328. Thanks Damien Nozay.

  • Updated embedded Distribute release to 0.6.24. Thanks Alex Gronholm.
  • Made --no-site-packages behavior the default behavior. The --no-site-packages flag is still permitted, but displays a warning when used. Thanks Chris McDonough.

1.3.2

  • Remove the [install] prefix = ... setting from the virtualenv distutils.cfg -- this has been causing problems for a lot of people, in rather obscure ways.
  • If you use a boot script it will attempt to import virtualenv and find a pre-downloaded Setuptools egg using that.
  • Added platform-specific paths, like /usr/lib/pythonX.Y/plat-linux2

1.3.1

  • Real Python 2.6 compatibility. Backported the Python 2.6 updates to site.py, including user directories (this means older versions of Python will support user directories, whether intended or not).
  • Always set [install] prefix in distutils.cfg -- previously on some platforms where a system-wide distutils.cfg was present with a prefix setting, packages would be installed globally (usually in /usr/local/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages).

  • Fixed handling of Jython environments that use a jython-complete.jar.

1.3

  • Update to Setuptools 0.6c9
  • Added an option virtualenv --relocatable EXISTING_ENV, which will make an existing environment "relocatable" -- the paths will not be absolute in scripts, .egg-info and .pth files. This may assist in building environments that can be moved and copied. You have to run this after any new packages installed.
  • Added bin/activate_this.py, a file you can use like execfile("path_to/activate_this.py", dict(__file__="path_to/activate_this.py")) -- this will activate the environment in place, similar to what the mod_wsgi example does.
  • For Mac framework builds of Python, the site-packages directory /Library/Python/X.Y/site-packages is added to sys.path, from Andrea Rech.
  • Some platform-specific modules in Macs are added to the path now (plat-darwin/, plat-mac/, plat-mac/lib-scriptpackages), from Andrea Rech.
  • Fixed a small Bashism in the bin/activate shell script.
  • Added __future__ to the list of required modules, for Python 2.3. You'll still need to backport your own subprocess module.
  • Fixed the __classpath__ entry in Jython's sys.path taking precedent over virtualenv's libs.

1.2

  • Added a --python option to select the Python interpreter.
  • Add warnings to the modules copied over, for Python 2.6 support.
  • Add sets to the module copied over for Python 2.3 (though Python 2.3 still probably doesn't work).

1.1.1

  • Added support for Jython 2.5.

1.1

  • Added support for Python 2.6.
  • Fix a problem with missing DLLs/zlib.pyd on Windows. Create
  • bin/python (or bin/python.exe) even when you run virtualenv with an interpreter named, e.g., python2.4
  • Fix MacPorts Python
  • Added --unzip-setuptools option
  • Update to Setuptools 0.6c8

  • Fixed bug in --clear.
  • Fixed typos in deactivate.bat.
  • Preserve $PYTHONPATH when calling subprocesses.

0.9.2

  • Fix include dir copying on Windows (makes compiling possible).
  • Include the main lib-tk in the path.
  • Patch distutils.sysconfig: get_python_inc and get_python_lib to point to the global locations.
  • Install distutils.cfg before Setuptools, so that system customizations of distutils.cfg won't effect the installation.
  • Add bin/pythonX.Y to the virtualenv (in addition to bin/python).
  • Fixed an issue with Mac Framework Python builds, and absolute paths (from Ronald Oussoren).

0.9.1

  • Improve ability to create a virtualenv from inside a virtualenv.
  • Fix a little bug in bin/activate.
  • Actually get distutils.cfg to work reliably.

0.9

  • Added lib-dynload and config to things that need to be copied over in an environment.
  • Copy over or symlink the include directory, so that you can build packages that need the C headers.
  • Include a distutils package, so you can locally update distutils.cfg (in lib/pythonX.Y/distutils/distutils.cfg).
  • Better avoid downloading Setuptools, and hitting PyPI on environment creation.
  • Fix a problem creating a lib64/ directory.
  • Should work on MacOSX Framework builds (the default Python installations on Mac). Thanks to Ronald Oussoren.

0.8.4

  • Windows installs would sometimes give errors about sys.prefix that were inaccurate.
  • Slightly prettier output.

0.8.3

  • Added support for Windows.

0.8.2

  • Give a better warning if you are on an unsupported platform (Mac Framework Pythons, and Windows).
