- The build system has learned some new tricks when creating or looking for the Python virtualenv:
When using an absolute build directory with `dunecontrol`, the virtualenv will now be placed
directly inside the root of the build directory hierarchy in the directory `dune-python-env`.
This should make it much easier to actually find the virtualenv and also avoids some corner
cases where the build system would create multiple virtualenvs that did not know about each
other. This behavior can be disabled by setting
`DUNE_PYTHON_EXTERNAL_VIRTUALENV_FOR_ABSOLUTE_BUILDDIR=0`.
If you need even more precise control about the location of the virtualenv, you can now also
directly set the CMake variable `DUNE_PYTHON_VIRTUALENV_PATH` to the directory in which to
create the virtualenv.
