Python module not found in virtualenv

Question

I\'ve tried to install a python module:

virtualenv .
source bin/activate
pip install utmp

It seems to be installed:

(wtmp)c

Just bumped into the same issue. I found out what is wrong by using which python. It showed me that I actually have an alias in place which points to a different python executable than the one in current virtualenv. Apparently aliases are more important than paths set via source.
