Question

sudo virtualenv ve
Traceback (most recent call last):

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'six'


python -c "import six; print (six.__version__)"
1.16.0

Already tried steps (didn't work)

sudo apt-get remove python3-virtualenv 
sudo apt-get install python3-virtualenv 
pip3 uninstall six
pip3 install six
sudo virtualenv ve  (throws error)
pip3 install urllib3 --upgrade

version:

• python 3.10
• six 1.16
