# Features - 20.23.0
* Do not install wheel and setuptools seed packages for Python
3.12+. To restore the old behaviour use:
- for wheel use VIRTUALENV_WHEEL=bundle environment variable or
--wheel=bundle CLI flag,
- for setuptools use VIRTUALENV_SETUPTOOLS=bundle environment
variable or --setuptools=bundle CLI flag.

- Switch off tests, they are just broken.
- Update to 20.7.0:
- Removed xonsh activator due to this breaking fairly often the
CI and lack of support from those packages maintainers,
upstream is encouraged to continue supporting the project as
a plugin
- Support Python interpreters without distutils (fallback to
syconfig in these cases)
- Plugins now use 'selectable' entry points
- add libffi-7.dll to the hard-coded list of dlls for PyPy
- Drop python 3.4 support as it has been over 2 years since EOL
- Use the better maintained platformdirs instead of appdirs
- Built in discovery class is always preferred over plugin
supplied classes.
- On the programmatic API allow passing in the environment
variable dictionary to use, defaults to os.environ if not
specified
- The builtin discovery takes now a --try-first-with argument
and is first attempted as valid interpreters. One can use
this to force discovery of a given python executable when the
discovery order/mechanism raises errors

- On the programmatic API allow passing in the environment variable
dictionary to use, defaults to ``os.environ`` if not specified
- Upgrade embedded setuptools to ``51.3.3`` from ``51.1.2``
- Bump embed pip to ``20.3.3``, setuptools to ``51.1.1`` and wheel to ``0.36.2``
- Allow unfunctioning of pydoc to fail freely so that virtualenvs can be
activated under Zsh with set -e (since otherwise ``unset -f`` and
``unfunction`` exit with 1 if the function does not exist in Zsh)
- Drop cached python information if the system executable is no longer
present (for example when the executable is a shim and the mapped
executable is replaced - such is the case with pyenv)
- The builtin discovery takes now a ``--try-first-with`` argument and is
first attempted as valid interpreters. One can use this to force discovery
of a given python executable when the discovery order/mechanism raises errors -
- On Windows python ``3.7+`` distributions where the exe shim is missing
fallback to the old ways - by :user:`gaborbernat`. (`#1986
- When discovering interpreters on Windows, via the PEP-514, prefer
``PythonCore`` releases over other ones. virtualenv
