Comment (by meejah):

 Although some people might like to use virtualenvwrapper, that's certainly
 not a prerequisite.

 I don't have an Ubuntu 20.04 system handy just now, but a package-search
 (https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=virtualenv&searchon=names&suite=focal&section=all)
 seems to indicate that the package is just called `virtualenv` on that
 distribution (not `python-virtualenv` as in Debian itself). So, perhaps
 that's the only change needed (to note that Ubuntu users may need `apt
 install virtualenv` instead of `apt install python-virtualenv`)..?

 Also we need instructions that work for python2 still (not python3 as the
 above are for). As much as I might wish for python3 to work now ;) it
 doesn't yet...
