如果我使用pip3安装了virtualenv，为什么为什么要用Python2.7创建环境？

Question

I installed virtualenv using sudo pip3 install virtualenv --upgrade , and yet every time I create a new environment ( virtualenv test ) it's running python2.7...

I know I can create the env. via virtualenv -p python3 test , but I don't want to do that. Virtualenv states that the default interpreter is the interpreter that virtualenv was installed with, but that's not the case.

Any ideas?

PS: I am running on OSX, my default Python interpreter is Python2.7 but I made sure to install virtualenv with pip3.

On my machine, when I do this:

$ virtualenv[hit-tab-now-for-autocomplete]
virtualenv      virtualenv-2.7  virtualenv-3.4

So, I can simply do:

$ virtualenv-3.4 test
