"bad interpreter" when running CLI

See original GitHub issue

Looks like the shebang line on the script is hard-coded to somebody’s local environment:

$ python3 -m pip install pinboard==2.1.6

$ pinboard -h
bash: /usr/local/bin/pinboard: /Users/dan/Projects/pinboard.py/venv/bin/python3: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

$ head -n1 /usr/local/bin/pinboard
#!/Users/dan/Projects/pinboard.py/venv/bin/python3

It works in 2.1.4:

$ python3 -m pip install pinboard==2.1.4

$ pinboard -h
usage: pinboard [-h] [--raw]
...

$ head -n1 /usr/local/bin/pinboard
#!/usr/local/opt/python/bin/python3.6

It’s broken in 2.1.5, but nothing jumps out to me when I compare that tag with 2.1.4.

I don’t know enough (yet) about how package distributions are built to offer a fix.

Version 2.1.8 just deployed to PyPi. Hopefully this nips it in the bud

@bhrutledge could you give it a shot when it’s available and let me know if things look ok?
