[Python-apps-team] Bug#922017: pipenv: Unable to use with Python 3.6

[Yasushi SHOJI]

Package: pipenv
Version: 11.9.0-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I've been using pipenv with Python 3.4, which I installed from
snapshot.debian.net on my Debian Sid.

Today I tried to run it with Python 3.6, which is still available in the
debian archive[1].  But got the following error.

All you have to do is run

    $ pipenv --python 3.6

Does Debian supports multiple version of Python, anyway?  If so, is
there a chance that this bug(?) will be fixed?

Thanks,
