2025-08-16feat(provider): detect venv python via "pynvim-python" tool #35273Michael Henry1
Problem: Detection of the pynvim module is currently done by finding the first Python interpreter in the `PATH` and checking if it can import pynvim. This has several problems: - Activation of an unrelated Python virtual environment will break automatic detection, unless pynvim is also installed in that environment. - Installing pynvim to the expected location is difficult. User installation into the system-wide or user-wide Python site area is now deprecated. On Ubuntu 24.04 with Python 3.12, for example, the command `pip install --user pynvim` now fails with the error message `error: externally-managed-environment`. - Users may create a dedicated virtual environment in which to install pynvim, but Nvim won't detect it; instead, they must either activate it before launching Nvim (which interferes with the user of other virtual environments) or else hard-code the variable `g:python3_host_prog` in their `init.vim` to the path of the correct Python interpreter. Neither option is desirable. Solution: Expose pynvim's Python interpreter on the `PATH` under the name `pynvim-python`. Typical user-flow: 1. User installs either uv or pipx. 2. User installs pynvim via: ``` uv tool install --upgrade pynvim # Or: pipx install --upgrade pynvim ``` With corresponding changes in pynvim https://github.com/neovim/pynvim/issues/593 the above user-flow is all that's needed for Nvim to detect the installed location of pynvim, even if an unrelated Python virtual environments is activated. It uses standard Python tooling to automate the necessary creation of a Python virtual environment for pyenv and the publication of `pynvim-python` to a directory on `PATH`.

2024-01-19docs(INSTALL.md): remove update-alternatives instructions (#27060)Junghyeon Park1
There are various other ways people can mimic the old commands, and plenty of people that have never heard of the old commands. This increases the consistency of the whole document by restricting it to the scope to installation of Nvim and its CLI commands.
