Description
Dear developers,
I was wondering what is the right path to specify --site-packages. Is it the path of the virtualenvironment or the path of size-packages? Concretely, which one is correct?
- `shiv --site-packages .venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/ --compressed -p '/usr/bin/env python3.11' -o executable-name -e path.to.main.py`
- `shiv --site-packages .venv/ --compressed -p '/usr/bin/env python3.11' -o executable-name -e path.to.main.py`
Thank you so much.

Start with the two shiv command examples in the issue and inspect the --site-packages option's existing documentation or help text. Clarify which path form is supported and update the relevant CLI documentation if the current explanation is insufficient.
