@pikesley can I tell you about our lord and saviour Nix?

@pikesley how did you find out my passwords?

```
# pipenv run python run.py
<attempts to run, shits itself>
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.10/ast.py", line 28, in <module>
from _ast import *
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_ast'
```

IT'S A BUILT-IN MODULE HOW CAN YOU NOT FIND IT?

```
# pipenv run python
Python 3.10.20 (main, May 8 2026, 22:44:01) [GCC 14.2.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import _ast
>>> _ast
<module '_ast' (built-in)>

```

WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING

@pikesley something mutated the library paths?

@castaway somebody in chat has a PR that I can test today

@pikesley crossing my fingers!

This is exactly the same on my Mac, on my Linux box, in a Docker container

HOW CAN THIS ALL BE SO CURSED?

@jon Normally I would be consorting with our saviour Podman but this thing I'm doing needs to use the display

@pikesley well that case I would simply run VNC inside the [crook appears from side of the stage as I’m pulled out of view and a clattering noise comes from the background]
