Description

@rubiksdot

How would this feature be useful?

ansible is globally available on my system but I prefer to keep it up to date and installed on my account. atm am hitting an issue and would like an easy way to use the system version with no chance of getting the user version pulled in.

Describe the solution you'd like

a pipx command that'd allow me to just wipe out the symlinks from (say) ~/.local/bin for a venv when I need to and then put them back cleanly when I am done.

Describe alternatives you've considered

  • uninstalling and reinstalling is a big inconvenient tasks and I'd need to track and reinstall injections
  • running /usr/bin/ansible-playbook is feasible but I worry that it'll do something based on the path and, thus, use the user installed ansible
