Bug description:
I wanted to "pre-install" in my "source" python installation some packages I often use, so that those packages are readily available in the virtual environments created from this "source", without wasting space and time re-installing them every time I create a new venv.
I thought the --system-site-packages would do just that, however, this "doesn't work" for binaries installed by python packages (for instance, ipython, but I can think of other cases like pylint, flake8 or cookieninja):
I create the venv (using a locally compiled 3.11 version):
bli@latimeria:~/tmp$ ~/python3.11/bin/python3 -m venv --system-site-packages .venv
bli@latimeria:~/tmp$ source .venv/bin/activate
However, the bin directory of the venv does not contain ipython:
(.venv) bli@latimeria:~/tmp$ ls .venv/bin/ | grep ipython
But ipython is installed in the source python 3.11:
(.venv) bli@latimeria:~/tmp$ ls ~/python3.11/bin/ | grep ipython
ipython
ipython3
This is however not in the PATH when in the venv (in this particular case, calling ipython starts one installed with python 3.6 in ${HOME}/bin, whereas if I try with a package not installed anywhere else than in the python 3.11 install, like cookieninja, the command is not found).
This even prevents the installation of ipython in the venv:
(.venv) bli@latimeria:~/tmp$ .venv/bin/pip3 install ipython
Requirement already satisfied: ipython in /home/bli/python3.11/lib/python3.11/site-packages (8.24.0)
[...]
(.venv) bli@latimeria:~/tmp$ .venv/bin/pip3 install --upgrade ipython
Requirement already satisfied: ipython in /home/bli/python3.11/lib/python3.11/site-packages (8.24.0)

Línea de trabajo
Reproduce el problema con python -m venv --system-site-packages, la activación y paquetes como ipython o cookieninja instalados en el Python de origen. Compara el PATH del venv y el comportamiento de pip install o de la actualización; se considera completado cuando se verifica el acceso esperado a los binarios de los paquetes preinstalados y el comportamiento de instalación de paquetes.
