Full Changelog: pypa/virtualenv@20.37.0...20.38.0

Changelog

Sourced from virtualenv's changelog.

Features - 20.38.0

Store app data (pip/setuptools/wheel caches) under the OS cache directory (platformdirs.user_cache_dir) instead of the data directory (platformdirs.user_data_dir). Existing app data at the old location is automatically migrated on first use. This ensures cached files that can be redownloaded are placed in the standard cache location (e.g. ~/.cache on Linux, ~/Library/Caches on macOS) where they are excluded from backups and can be cleaned by system tools - by :user:rahuldevikar. (:issue:1884) (:issue:1884)

Add PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable support to all activation scripts (Bash, Batch, PowerShell, Fish, C Shell, Nushell, and Python). The virtualenv's lib/pkgconfig directory is now automatically prepended to PKG_CONFIG_PATH on activation and restored on deactivation, enabling packages that use pkg-config during build/install to find their configuration files - by :user:rahuldevikar. (:issue:2637)

Upgrade embedded pip to 26.0.1 from 25.3 and setuptools to 82.0.0, 75.3.4 from 75.3.2, 80.9.0

by :user:rahuldevikar. (:issue:3027)

Replace ty: ignore comments with proper type narrowing using assertions and explicit None checks - by :user:rahuldevikar. (:issue:3029)

Bugfixes - 20.38.0

Exclude pywin32 DLLs (pywintypes*.dll, pythoncom*.dll) from being copied to the Scripts directory during virtualenv creation on Windows. This fixes compatibility issues with pywin32, which expects its DLLs to be installed in site-packages/pywin32_system32 by its own post-install script - by :user:rahuldevikar. (:issue:2662)

Preserve symlinks in pyvenv.cfg paths to match venv behavior. Use os.path.abspath() instead of os.path.realpath() to normalize paths without resolving symlinks, fixing issues with Python installations accessed via symlinked directories (common in network-mounted filesystems) - by :user:rahuldevikar. Fixes :issue:2770. (:issue:2770)

Fix Windows activation scripts to properly quote python.exe path, preventing failures when Python is installed in a path with spaces (e.g., C:\Program Files) and a file named C:\Program exists on the filesystem - by :user:rahuldevikar. (:issue:2985)

Fix bash -u (set -o nounset) compatibility in bash activation script by using ${PKG_CONFIG_PATH:-} and ${PKG_CONFIG_PATH:+:${PKG_CONFIG_PATH}} to handle unset PKG_CONFIG_PATH - by :user:Fridayai700. (:issue:3044)

Gracefully handle corrupted on-disk cache and invalid JSON from Python interrogation subprocess instead of crashing with unhandled JSONDecodeError or KeyError - by :user:gaborbernat. (:issue:3054)

v20.36.1 (2026-01-09)
