Description

AFAIK the setupVirtualenv task should run "pip install" command in the virtual environment. This works on my local machine, yet on Jenkins, when we run:

gradlew clean install -xcheck --stacktrace

from within PerfkitBenchmarker tool, we get the following stacktrace:

It looks as if the virtualenv is not used while installing the needed dependencies (why is it trying to install pluggy in /usr/local/lib?). Therefore it throws "PermissionDenied" exception.

 This affects all Performance tests on Beam's Jenkins. Currently none of the Jenkins jobs can build the whole repository code before the benchmark is started.
