Module search path incorrectly includes system python installation

Installing Python-3.8.14...
Installed Python-3.8.14 to /home/sirianni/.asdf/installs/python/3.8.14
$ /home/sirianni/.asdf/installs/python/3.8.14/bin/python -c 'import sys; print("\n".join(sys.path));'
/home/sirianni/.asdf/installs/python/3.8.14/lib/python38.zip
/home/sirianni/.asdf/installs/python/3.8.14/lib/python3.8
/home/sirianni/.asdf/installs/python/3.8.14/lib/python3.8/lib-dynload
/home/sirianni/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages
/home/sirianni/.asdf/installs/python/3.8.14/lib/python3.8/site-packages
Note that sys.path
incorrectly includes /home/sirianni/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages
which is from the system python installation.
It seems that python's site.py
will dynamically add ~/.local/lib/...
to sys.path
if there is a matching python version. This can be disabled by setting the environment variable PYTHONNOUSERSITE=1
.
