Message 190396 - Python tracker
I was only thinking of 3.4, which will have venv and a pip bootstrapper. Is changing the doc build / doctest in scope for minor releases of 3.3 (or even earlier)? The commands I listed (using setup_distribute.py) also work with 3.3. (But they're unsecure -- https://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/374/) 3.2 is harder as it doesn't even have builtin venv.
