How to create a virtualenv by cloning the current local environment?
Suppose I have a python interpreter with many modules installed on my local system, and it has been tuned to just work. Now I want to create a virtualenv to freeze these, so that they won't be broke by upgrading in the future. How can I make it? Thanks. I can't use pip freeze , because that's a cluster on which there's no pip and I don't have the privileges to install it. And I don't want the reinstall the modules either, I'm looking for that whether there's a cloning way. Run pip freeze to create a list of all modules currently installed on the system. Then make a virtualenv and install these
