Could not evaluate: Working directory <virualenv> does not exist!

Affected Puppet, Ruby, OS and module versions/distributions

• Puppet: 2019.8
• Ruby: 2.5.7-1
• Distribution: ---
• Module version: v6.1.0

How to reproduce (e.g Puppet code you use)

python::pyvenv { $_virtualenv:
  ensure   => 'present',
  version  => $pythonconfig::package_ensure,
  venv_dir => $_virtualenv,
}

python::pip { $pkgname:
  ensure       => $ensure,
  pkgname      => $pkgname,
  virtualenv   => $_virtualenv,
  pip_provider => 'pip3',
  require      => Python::Pyvenv[$_virtualenv]
}

python::pip { "certifi for venv ${_virtualenv}":
  ensure       => 'present',
  pkgname      => 'certifi',
  virtualenv   => $_virtualenv,
  pip_provider => 'pip3',
  require      => Python::Pip[$pkgname]
}

What are you seeing

Issue only occurs when running Puppet in noop mode.
The following error occurs:

Could not evaluate: Working directory <virtualenv> does not exist!

When running Puppet in normal mode the virtual environment is created and all dependencies are installed.

Looks like the evaluation on the $cwd parameter in the exec in https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-python/blob/master/manifests/pip.pp is not working as expected.

What behaviour did you expect instead

No error message and a successful noop run when deploying a new virtual environment.

Output log

Any additional information you'd like to impart

Start in manifests/pip.pp, focusing on the exec resource and its $cwd evaluation during Puppet noop runs. Reproduce the virtualenv and pip resource scenario in noop mode, then verify that a new virtual environment produces no missing-working-directory error while normal mode still installs dependencies.
