Homebrew, the OS X package manager, distributes python3 as a framework build. We like to be able to control the shebang that gets written to scripts installed with pip. [1]

The path we prefer for invoking the python3 interpreter is like /usr/local/opt/python3/bin/python3.4, which is symlinked to the framework stub launcher at /usr/local/Cellar/python3/3.4.1_1/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/bin/python3.4. For Python 2.x, we discovered that assigning "/usr/local/opt/python/bin/python2.7" to sys.executable in sitecustomize.py resulted in correct shebangs for scripts installed by pip. The same approach doesn't work with Python 3.

A very helpful conversation with Vinay Sajip [2] led us to consider how the python3 stub launcher sets PYVENV_LAUNCHER, which distlib uses in preference to sys.executable to discover the intended interpreter when pip writes shebangs.

Roughly, PYVENV_LAUNCHER is set from argv[0], so it mimics the invocation of the stub, except that symlinks in the directory component of the path to the identified interpreter are resolved to a "real" path. For us, this means that PYVENV_LAUNCHER (and therefore the shebangs of installed scripts) always points to the Cellar path, not the preferred opt path, even when python is invoked via the opt path.

Avoiding this symlink resolution would allow us to control pip's shebang (which sets the shebangs of all pip-installed scripts) by controlling the way we invoke python3 when we use ensurepip during installation.

Building python3 with the attached diff removes the symlink resolution.

[1] This is important to Homebrew because packages are physically installed to versioned prefixes, like /usr/local/Cellar/python3/3.4.1_1/. References to these real paths are fragile and break when the version number changes or when the revision number ("_1") changes, when can happen when e.g. openssl is released and Python needs to be recompiled against the new library. To avoid this breakage, Homebrew maintains a version-independent symlink to each package, like /usr/local/opt/python3, which points to the .../Cellar/python3/3.4.1_1/ location.

From the initial description of the problem, it's not clear to me that there is a problem here needing resolution in the stub launcher. I've asked for clarification on the pip issue tracker.

Also, the patch causes a test failure with a framework build:

I'm not convinced that this is a bug in python. PYVENV_LAUNCHER is an implementation detail of CPython used in the implementation of the pyvenv functionality.

I consider using this undocumented environment variable in distlib as a bug in distlib, which should be fixed there.

It would be nice to know why distlib uses PYVENV_LAUNCHER as that could lead us to a real bug or missing feature.

BTW. I haven't read the discussion in [2] yet.

Speaking of which... That environment variable shouldn't leak into Python code in the first place, launching a regular Python interpreter from a venv could currently result in unwanted behavior. I'll try to provide an example of that.

I consider using this undocumented environment variable in distlib as a bug in distlib, which should be fixed there.

Well, let me explain why it's used: when Python >= 3.3 starts up, it looks for a pyvenv.cfg file proximate to sys.executable. If found, that means we're in a venv, and sys.path is set up accordingly. On OS X, the stub launcher is copied/symlinked to the venv when a new venv is created - the real interpreter is not copied. So, shebangs written by distlib into scripts installed into a venv must be of the form #!/path/to/venv/bin/python, and this cannot be obtained from sys.executable because that is pointing to a framework executable. There would be no pyvenv.cfg anywhere near that location.

This is why the PYVENV_LAUNCHER variable was created, and distlib uses it because it needs to conform to how venvs work. In this respect distlib is a bit like setuptools - it needs to understand some low-level details which other libraries don't need to worry about.

Scripts installed in venvs work as expected (AFAICT) when used with stock Python framework builds on OS X. With HomeBrew, the complication appears to be caused by two levels of symlink: the executable in /usr/local/ points to one in /usr/local/Cellar/..., which in turn points to the framework executable.

The failing test (test_defaults) could be fixed by looking for equivalence in the "home =" directories in the test, rather than a string-contains-value test as at present.

A comment on Vinay's comment: "and this cannot be obtained from sys.executable because that is pointing to a framework executable". That was true prior to 3.3 and is still true at the moment for 2.7.x but it is not true for 3.3+. Ronald's change (b79d276041a8) in Issue15307 for venv framework support changed the stub launcher to no longer do a realpath() on the executable name which means that sys.executable contains the path to the Python stub launcher whether or not in a venv:

$ ls -l /usr/local/bin/python2.7 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 71 Jul 3 01:21 /usr/local/bin/python2.7 -> ../../../Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python2.7 $ /usr/local/bin/python2.7 -c 'import sys;print(sys.executable)' /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python

Ronald's change ... changed the stub launcher to no longer do a realpath() on the executable name which means that sys.executable contains the path to the Python stub launcher whether or not in a venv

Ronald's change doesn't do a realpath() on the executable name itself, but it does do a realpath() on the executable's directory. This seems to be what's causing the problem in Homebrew builds: there are two levels of symlink at play.

/usr/local/bin/python3.4 -> /usr/local/opt/python3/bin/python3.4 -> /usr/local/Cellar/python3/3.4.1_1/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/bin/python3.4

Because of the realpath(), the "wrong" stub launcher (from Homebrew's perspective) gets pointed to by the environment variable. At least, if my understanding is correct.

We would like to refer to python3 as /usr/local/opt/python3/bin/python3, where /usr/local/opt/python3 is a symlink to ../Cellar/python3/3.4.2, and /usr/local/Cellar/python3/3.4.2/bin/python3 is a symlink to /usr/local/Cellar/python3/3.4.2/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/bin/python3, which is the stub launcher for /usr/local/Cellar/python3/3.4.2/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/Python.

First of all, sorry about the slow response.

Vinay: I don't quite understand why you use PYVENV_LAUNCHER: When I create a pyvenv using python 3.3 (with a oldish build from the 3.3 branch) sys.executable point to a binary in the venv without mucking with environment variables:

$ pyvenv-3.3 testenv $ testenv/bin/python Python 3.3.5+ (3.3:a36d469f31c1, Aug 13 2014, 09:04:41) [GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 5.1 (clang-503.0.40)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

import sys sys.executable '/Users/ronald/Projects/pyobjc-hg/pyobjc/x/testenv/bin/python'

If older version of Python 3.x don't do this that's a bug in those versions and it would be acceptable to use the environment variable with those versions to work around this bug.

I still not convinced that PYVENV_LAUNCHER needs to be changed. It's highly likely that any use of PYVENV_LAUNCHER outside of CPython itself is an indication of a bug in CPython that needs to be fixed there.

I don't quite understand why you use PYVENV_LAUNCHER

When I first developed the venv functionality it was definitely needed, but it looks as if it is not needed now. Perhaps to fix this completely, the following needs to be done, on the assumption that PYVENV_LAUNCHER is no longer needed:

  1. Remove the reference to it in distlib, and use sys.executable instead. Once pip incorporates this fix, the Homebrew problem should go away. (I have already made the change in the distlib repo, but this needs to be released in order for pip to consider vendoring it, and then pip needs to be released before Python can incorporate it).

  2. Remove references to the environment variable in Python itself, using sys.executable instead.

As the env var was an implementation detail, ISTM it could be removed in a 3.4 point release - would you agree?

The environment variable itself cannot be removed from CPython, it is necessary to implement the correct behavior of pyvenv with framework builds of Python.

That said, I do think that the environment variable should be unset as soon as possible in the CPython startup code to avoid accidentally affecting other interpreters.

Homebrew's interest in this ticket was resolved by the release of pip 6, which includes Vinay's change to distlib to use sys.executable instead of PYVENV_LAUNCHER. Many thanks!

I'm not marking this fixed in case it is useful to leave this open to discuss unsetting PYVENV_LAUNCHER.

I believe this behavior (presence of the PYVENV_LAUNCHER and inheritance in child processes) continues to cause problems. See https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/issues/845 for a simple reproducing of the issue, even on pip 6+.

I spoke prematurely; I recently rediscovered that the persistence of PYVENV_LAUNCHER poisons the sys.executable of virtualenv interpreters launched as a subprocess of another Python interpreter:

$ virtualenv -p python3 test $ test/bin/python3 -c 'import sys; print(sys.executable)' /Users/tim/test/bin/python3

$ /usr/local/bin/python3 -c 'import subprocess; subprocess.call(["/Users/tim/test/bin/python3", "-c", "import sys; print(sys.executable)"])' /usr/local/bin/python3

$ /usr/local/bin/python3 -c 'import subprocess, os; del os.environ["PYVENV_LAUNCHER"]; subprocess.call(["/Users/tim/test/bin/python3", "-c", "import sys; print(sys.executable)"])' /Users/tim/test/bin/python3

If PYVENV_LAUNCHER can be unset before script execution begins, that seems ideal.

I'm not sure if is still correct, and it seems neater to remove PYVENV_LAUNCHER from where it's defined in the first place (the stub launcher C file) if it was just a shim needed around the time the functionality was developed (pre the 3.3 release).

It would be helpful if a Mac person could try removing it and seeing if the resulting framework builds of Python on OS X are adversely affected.

On Python 3.6, I made the edit. I actually used the one-liner os.environ.pop('__PYVENV_LAUNCHER__', None). I then created a venv and installed a package and successfully ran a module in that package:

$ python -m venv ~/.envs/issue22490-test $ ~/.envs/issue22490-test/bin/python -m pip install cherrypy Collecting cherrypy Downloading CherryPy-8.5.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl (463kB) 100% |████████████████████████████████| 471kB 2.2MB/s Collecting six (from cherrypy) Using cached six-1.10.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl Installing collected packages: six, cherrypy Successfully installed cherrypy-8.5.0 six-1.10.0 $ ~/.envs/issue22490-test/bin/python -m cherrypy

So pyvenv seems to be working.

Additionally, it's corrected the undesirable behavior that Tim demonstrated:

$ rm -R ~/.envs/issue22490-test $ python -m virtualenv ~/.envs/issue22490-test Using base prefix '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6' New python executable in /Users/jaraco/.envs/issue22490-test/bin/python3 Also creating executable in /Users/jaraco/.envs/issue22490-test/bin/python Installing setuptools, pip, wheel...done. $ python -c 'import subprocess; subprocess.call(["/Users/jaraco/.envs/issue22490-test/bin/python", "-c", "import sys; print(sys.executable)"])' /Users/jaraco/.envs/issue22490-test/bin/python

I tried making a Framework build of Python with the environment variable removed entirely, but I'm not experienced enough with builds on a Mac to know what I need to do to create a proper build. I build Python from source and tried to create a venv, but it crashed with a nondescript error:

Aah. The issue is probably no zlib.

After making sure I had zlib installed and available, by re-running xcode-select --install, I was able to build with zlib, create a venv, and install packages to it:

$ ./python.exe -m venv ~/.envs/issue22490 $ ~/.envs/issue22490/bin/python -c "import os; os.environ['PYVENV_LAUNCHER']" Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in File "/Users/jaraco/Dropbox/code/public/cpython/Lib/os.py", line 669, in getitem raise KeyError(key) from None KeyError: 'PYVENV_LAUNCHER' $ ~/.envs/issue22490/bin/pip install cherrypy Collecting cherrypy Using cached CherryPy-8.5.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl Collecting six (from cherrypy) Using cached six-1.10.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl Installing collected packages: six, cherrypy Successfully installed cherrypy-8.5.0 six-1.10.0 $ ~/.envs/issue22490/bin/python -m cherrypy ...

What else would I need to test? What might one expect to fail due to the lack of that environment variable?

Given Jason's comment above, it's probably best for one of the Mac-expert committers to remove the environment variable altogether from Mac/Tools/pythonw.c:main(), and confirm everything still builds and runs OK, and then for Tim to confirm that Homebrew isn't adversely impacted by the change.

I was pointed here after we found some erroneous behavior.

We have a script run by the system python that invokes a specific venv's python3 with a -m flag requesting a module that is installed (only) in that venv. A user complained that this failed, with the venv's python3 claiming the module was not installed (but it was, as proved by manually running it with the same -m flag).

Eventually someone realized that this was because the system python was a python3 installed by homebrew -- somehow this caused the system python (being python3) set PYVENV_LAUNCHER, and that made the venv's python3 ignore the venv's site-packages and instead look in the system python's site-packages.

This feels very wrong.

Maybe this is just a clearer description of https://bugs.python.org/issue31363? But that gained no traction while here there is at least some discussion.

As I said in , it seems that the PYVENV_LAUNCHER should be removed from the stub launcher and then tests should confirm that framework builds aren't adversely affected. Unfortunately, I can't do this testing as I don't have a Mac, and have been hoping that one of the Mac platform experts (or indeed anyone who can build and test framework builds) can look at this.

The pull request is wrong, the use of PYVENV_LAUNCHER in pythonw.c is correct and should not be removed. Where the current code goes wrong is that it doesn't clear the environment as soon as possible.

This patch should basically do the trick (but requires testing and probably adjustments to some other code):

diff --git a/Modules/main.c b/Modules/main.c index 3a6cf31fc8..c673d06c56 100644 --- a/Modules/main.c +++ b/Modules/main.c @@ -1360,6 +1360,8 @@ config_init_program_name(_PyCoreConfig *config) "variable", (Py_ssize_t)len); } config->program_name = program_name; +

Some background information on why and environment variable is used on macOS when using a framework install: To use system GUI frameworks on macOS the executable should be part of an application bundle (".app"), otherwise a number of APIs just don't work (which would affect the use of for example Tkinter in command-line scripts). To work around this platform limitation a framework install of Python has the actual interpreter in a Python.app bundle stored in the framework, and "{sys.prefix}/bin/python" is a small stub executable that launches the real interpreter.

The environment variable is used to pass the path to the stub executable to the real interpreter, to enable it to behave correctly (look at venv configuration files, have sys.executable be correct, ...).

That said, looking at the code it might be possible to do away with the environment variable after call because the code in pythonw.c suggests the the environment variable is only necessary for OSX 10.5 or earlier.

I'm working on an alternative pull request that implements the patch I included inline in this message, with some additional documentation.

I've added PR 9516 that just clears PYVENV_LAUNCHER from the environment as soon as it is no longer needed.

A more involved change would be to change both the interpreter and the stub executable to avoid the need to use an environment variable in the first place:

This would be slightly cleaner, at the cost of having more complicated code (and is a change that would IMHO not qualify for a back port, while my current PR is minimal enough for a back port)

Note that both with and without this PR sys.executable points to the python executable inside the venv (when using a env).

To use the framework build you either have to install, use or set "DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH" in the environment (See the definition of RUNFORSHARED in Makefile for the value to use).

To properly test the this issue you have to install (or trick the system into thinking there is an install: I created a symlink in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8 -> /Users/ronald/Projects/python/github/cpython-ronald/build/Python.framework/Versions/3.8).

I would love to know how to repro the original bug so I can demonstrate this actually fixes it.

Here's what I think should be the repro:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/bin/python3 -c 'import subprocess; p = subprocess.Popen([".mypy/venv/bin/python3","-m","mypy.dmypy","-h"]).communicate()'

The setup is that .mypy/venv is a virtualenv that has mypy.dmypy installed. This is what failed for the user who reported this.

Unfortunately this does not fail for me (with a framework build from master installed). Would I have to do the install via brew? (I would have to learn about locally testing modified brew recipes, I suppose.)

I then get a message about not being able to find mypy:

.../some-env/bin/python3: No module named mypy.dmypy

I don't get the message when I call subprocess outside of a venv.

I haven't checked yet if my patch fixes this issue, that will have to wait for later this week.

Thanks, I have confirmed that this reproduces our issue and that your PR fixes it. I guess at this point we need someone to test with Brew.

I just discovered this ticket again and see that it's stuck!

I have read through the thread but it's still a bit unclear what would be required to test this with homebrew like Guido says is needed for this to go forward. Is there anyone who can explain or better yet test?

It looks like @ronaldoussoren's pull request was ready to go pending a test with Brew. The PR itself needs a rebase, but is anyone able to finish the testing on this for it to be merged? Thanks!
