**Note**: Note that the installer does not support Python < 3.6.

## Known Issues
|
||||
|
||||
### Debian/Ubuntu
|
||||
|
||||
On Debian and Ubuntu systems, there are various issues that maybe caused due to how
|
||||
various Python standard library components are packaged and configured. The following
|
||||
details issues we are presently aware of, and potential workarounds.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** This can also affect WSL users on Windows.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Installation Layout
|
||||
If you encounter an error similar to the following, this might be due to
|
||||
[pypa/virtualenv#2350](https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/issues/2350).
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/root/.local/share/pypoetry/venv/bin/python'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can work around this issue by setting the `DEB_PYTHON_INSTALL_LAYOUT` environment
|
||||
variable to `deb` in order to emulate previously working behaviour.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
export DEB_PYTHON_INSTALL_LAYOUT=deb
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Missing `distutils` Module
|
||||
|
||||
In certain Debian/Ubuntu environments, you might encounter the following error message
|
||||
in error logs (`poetry-installer-error-*.log`) provided when the installer fails.
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils.cmd'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This is probably due to [this bug](https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python3.10/+bug/1940705).
|
||||
See also [pypa/get-pip#124](https://github.com/pypa/get-pip/issues/124).
|
||||
|
||||
The known workaround for this issue is to reinstall the `distutils` package provided by
|
||||
the distribution.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
apt-get install --reinstall python3-distutils
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you have installed a specific python version, eg: `3.10`, you might have to use the
|
||||
package name `python3.10-distutils`.
