It is recommended to use a virtual environment instead: https://pip.pypa.io/warnings/venv` warning (which is capture by GitHub actions as an error). It would be nice to have an option to suppress these warnings so that these errors are not mixed up with the other warnings raised in the other steps.\r\n\r\n![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/99664904/193181673-65c88716-cc3b-4d6a-a106-eebf588080e5.png)\r\n\r\n**Note:** It's also not possible for me to use a non-root user when running the workflow in the EC2 instance, as explained here: https://github.com/machulav/ec2-github-runner/issues/64#issuecomment-907688504.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/ssalmani-ledger","@type":"Person","name":"ssalmani-ledger"},"datePublished":"2022-09-30T03:12:34.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":17},"url":"https://github.com/513/setup-python/issues/513"}
