### Command used with act

```sh
gh act -W .github/workflows/black.yaml



### Describe issue

The workflow completes on `github.com`, so I expect it to work the same on my local system.

| The virtual environment was not created successfully because ensurepip is not
| available. On Debian/Ubuntu systems, you need to install the python3-venv
| package using the following command.
|
| apt install python3.10-venv
|
| You may need to use sudo with that command. After installing the python3-venv
| package, recreate your virtual environment.
