If it helps, this gist: https://gist.github.com/minrk/6d73fc9159448f1f83f8a6d5c2b2dfac has a regression test on ubuntu:22.04 that fails with pip 22.2.2, and works with this PR. |
use site.getsitepackages() where available instead of just purelib/platlib, which is often insufficient on e.g. System Pythons for Debian/macOS handle virtualenv < 20 overwriting site.py without getsitepackages() by preserving current behavior.

virtualenv < 20overwriting site.py without getsitepackages() by preserving current behavior. I think the cases where this fix is needed and site.py is overwritten are mutually exclusive, so this should be okay. At the very least, it should be an improvement in all cases where behavior is changed.I don't know how to write a great test, since it needs to actually run against system Python on Mac or Debian outside a virtualenv in order to directly test this. As it is, the added test only assumes that
site.getsitepackages()is right to remove and then removed, which is a bit tautological.closes #6264
