User scripts are installed to ~/.local/bin. pip was looking for scripts
to uninstall in ~/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/bin. This commit
makes it look in ~/.local/bin instead.

Fixes the reproducer reported in #5997.

Might break other use cases, I'm not familiar with pip at all. Will hapilly take guidance on the correct way to fix this.

I think this might brake the virtual environment usecase, as in a venv getuserbase() still evaluates to ~/.local/bin

Gated the fix behind a running_in_virtualenv() check.

This feels hacky to me. Maybe we should rewrite the location detection stuff with sysconfig instead, which should return the correct scheme.

Indeed, sysconfig.get_path("scripts") would return the proper path.

Since site only seems to be used for the script related paths, all these paths could just be exchanged for sysconfig.get_path("scripts") and site would not be needed anymore.

Not sure how to fix the CI failure. I guess we need a fallback if get_path("scripts") fails but I'm not sure what that would be.

A simple assert bin_dir is not None would be fine. sysconfig.get_path() never returns None unless you pass in an invalid key. 'scripts' always exists.

@uranusjr All the tests are passing now.

One annoying thing is that this only fixes console_scripts and not normal scripts. Any ideas on how to fix that as well?

IIUC, plain scripts (specified by setuptools scripts) is hopeless since they are not recorded anywhere for editable installs, and pip has no way to know what to uninstall. The only way to fix this would be to “modernise” editable installations to use .dist-info metadata. There are efforts toward this, but they are out of the scope for this PR.

Seems OK to me! If you could tweak the NEWS fragment, I'll be happy to merge this in!

I'll defer to @uranusjr's judgement of whether the Windows-specific logic is correct. :)

<blockquote>
<h1>21.1 (2021-04-24)</h1>
<h2>Process</h2>
<ul>
<li>Start installation scheme migration from <code>distutils</code> to <code>sysconfig</code>. A
warning is implemented to detect differences between the two implementations to
encourage user reports, so we can avoid breakages before they happen.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Features</h2>
<ul>
<li>Add the ability for the new resolver to process URL constraints. (<code>[#8253](pypa/pip#8253) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/8253&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li>Add a feature <code>--use-feature=in-tree-build</code> to build local projects in-place
when installing. This is expected to become the default behavior in pip 21.3;
see <code>Installing from local packages &lt;https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/user_guide/#installing-from-local-packages&gt;</code>_
for more information. (<code>[#9091](pypa/pip#9091) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/9091&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li>Bring back the &quot;(from versions: ...)&quot; message, that was shown on resolution failures. (<code>[#9139](pypa/pip#9139) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/9139&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li>Add support for editable installs for project with only setup.cfg files. (<code>[#9547](pypa/pip#9547) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/9547&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li>Improve performance when picking the best file from indexes during <code>pip install</code>. (<code>[#9748](pypa/pip#9748) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/9748&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li>Warn instead of erroring out when doing a PEP 517 build in presence of
<code>--build-option</code>. Warn when doing a PEP 517 build in presence of
<code>--global-option</code>. (<code>[#9774](pypa/pip#9774) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/9774&gt;</code>_)</li>
</ul>
<h2>Bug Fixes</h2>
<ul>
<li>Fixed <code>--target</code> to work with <code>--editable</code> installs. (<code>[#4390](pypa/pip#4390) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/4390&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li>Add a warning, discouraging the usage of pip as root, outside a virtual environment. (<code>[#6409](pypa/pip#6409) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/6409&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li>Ignore <code>.dist-info</code> directories if the stem is not a valid Python distribution
name, so they don't show up in e.g. <code>pip freeze</code>. (<code>[#7269](pypa/pip#7269) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/7269&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li>Only query the keyring for URLs that actually trigger error 401.
This prevents an unnecessary keyring unlock prompt on every pip install
invocation (even with default index URL which is not password protected). (<code>[#8090](pypa/pip#8090) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/8090&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li>Prevent packages already-installed alongside with pip to be injected into an
isolated build environment during build-time dependency population. (<code>[#8214](pypa/pip#8214) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/8214&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li>Fix <code>pip freeze</code> permission denied error in order to display an understandable error message and offer solutions. (<code>[#8418](pypa/pip#8418) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/8418&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li>Correctly uninstall script files (from setuptools' <code>scripts</code> argument), when installed with <code>--user</code>. (<code>[#8733](pypa/pip#8733) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/8733&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li>New resolver: When a requirement is requested both via a direct URL
(<code>req @ URL</code>) and via version specifier with extras (<code>req[extra]</code>), the
resolver will now be able to use the URL to correctly resolve the requirement
with extras. (<code>[#8785](pypa/pip#8785) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/8785&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li>New resolver: Show relevant entries from user-supplied constraint files in the
error message to improve debuggability. (<code>[#9300](pypa/pip#9300) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/9300&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li>Avoid parsing version to make the version check more robust against lousily
debundled downstream distributions. (<code>[#9348](pypa/pip#9348) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/9348&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li><code>--user</code> is no longer suggested incorrectly when pip fails with a permission
error in a virtual environment. (<code>[#9409](pypa/pip#9409) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/9409&gt;</code>_)</li>
<li>Fix incorrect reporting on <code>Requires-Python</code> conflicts. (<code>[#9541](pypa/pip#9541) &lt;https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/9541&gt;</code>_)</li>
