While nothing was really needed for virtualenv to work on most distros, we had an issue with OpenMandriva. While checking for it, it was noticed that there was no check if python-virtualenv was installed. This didn't solve the issues we faced there: at least with the half-broken OpenMandriva Lx 4.0 docker container we used, ensurepip was not available anywhere, causing venv to fail. Add a distro-specific note about that. Note: at least at the time we did our tests, OpenMandriva Lx 4.0 docker was shipped with wrong dnf repositories. Also, there was no repos available for it anymore. So, we had to do some hacks to upgrade to 4.3 before being able to run any tests.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
