Oh I am sorry. I think I didn't cover all you were asking about. About the
venv. What you do is create a new venv. Then you go to your old venv and
do
Pip freeze > requirements.txt
Then you go to your new venv and do
Pip install -r requirements.txt
Then you use pip upgrade and the review I sent to update the libraries.
Now the problem is this doesn't always work because for example if you go
from 3.9.6 to 3.11 right now and try that with a library in one of your venv
as it will error because not all libraries keep up. So you might have to
not update to the latest python if your libraries have not all caught up
with the python your switching to.
I use pyenv-win or pyenv on linux to keep a lot of different versions of
python around and easy to switch to so I can have both different pythons and
different venvs. Currently one of my projects has 3 venvs two of them work
but I am waiting for WX widgets to work on the 3.111 version but I keep it
around as I wait.

Subject: [program-l] Python: keeping libraries in virtual environments
updated
Hi all,
Are there any mechanisms to keep libraries in python virtual environments
automatically updated? I have had instances where I would be trying to
workaround a bug only to find that it has been resolved by an update.
I am using virtualenv via virtualwrapper.
