The `poentry install` command does not modify the file `env.toml`

[EliseevEgor]

Description

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a poetry project.
2. Install two python versions: for example, python 3.12.2 and 3.12.3.
3. poetry env use /<path to python 3.12.2>/bin/python.
4. Delete existing env rm -rf $(poetry env info --path).
5. Create a new one with poetry install (Poetry will use the newest patch version by default 3.12.3).
6. Run command poetry env use /.../pypoetry/virtualenvs/poetry-project-name/bin/python

Poetry deletes the existing poetry environment with an error: Could not find the python executable /.../pypoetry/virtualenvs/poetry-project-name/bin/python

Workarounds

Manually change the version of the interpreter in the file env.toml.

In my example from 3.12.2 to 3.12.3.
