OK, so this is good, because it looks like venv creation works.  The next step is to figure out what went wrong.  I think I have an idea.

In the temp-venv that you made, you should have a file pyvenv.cfg.  What does:

$ cat temp-venv/pyvenv.cfg

Say?

Similarly, you should have such a file in the firedrake directory.  What does:

$ cat firedrake/pyvenv.cfg

Say?

I think this might be the problem (in your first screenshot you had):

$ pwd
~/firedrake
$ ls
bin helmholtz.py include lib lib64 share src

But seemingly no pyvenv.cfg

Cheers,

Lawrence
