IPython-8 warns about virtualenv created by pyenv

Hi, is there a way to disable the virtualenv warning?

I use pyenv, and every time IPython-8.0 starts from a virtual environment that’s based on pyenv’s miniconda, it shows this warning:

# Activate virtualenv via 'pyenv activate my_project_env' or 'pyenv activate my_base_python_env/envs/my_project_env'.
...

# Then, start ipython (installed in that virtual env).
$ ipython
/Users/xxx/.pyenv/versions/rubix-mds/lib/python3.9/site-packages/IPython/core/interactiveshell.py:802: UserWarning: Attempting to work in a virtualenv. If you encounter problems, please install IPython inside the virtualenv.

This only happens for virtualenv based on another pyenv’s miniconda3-latest. No warning shown with virtualenv based on another pyenv’s “python version”.

    `-- rubix-mds -> $HOME/.pyenv/versions/miniconda3-latest/envs/rubix-mds

I’d like to know if there’s a way to silent this particular warning?

Thank you.

Hum, I would have to try, but see if you can use warnings.filterwarnings in one of the startup files.

I’f not we can add a flag/config option to silence it.

Of course, the default is still to issue the warning. But people can silence it if they want.
