Description

I have installed poetry 1.4.0 version. I am getting the following error while running poetry show:

Command ['python', '-I', '-W', 'ignore', '-'] errored with the following return code 2

Error output:
Unknown option: -I
usage: python [option] ... [-c cmd | -m mod | file | -] [arg] ...
Try `python -h' for more information.


Input:
import sys

if hasattr(sys, "real_prefix"):
    print(sys.real_prefix)
elif hasattr(sys, "base_prefix"):
    print(sys.base_prefix)
else:
    print(sys.prefix)

Research direction

Reproduce the failure by running poetry show with Poetry 1.4.0 and record the Python version and operating system. Start from the reported python -I command and determine why that option is rejected; done means poetry show completes successfully in the affected environment with coverage for the failing case.
