[Bug] AssertionError about gef

[Green360]

@hugsy: I am sorry, I was not aware of this. I now activate pyenv only if needed and use my system python3.11 with gef and run pwntools via venv. Yesterday evening it looked like it works this way. gef seems happy and I can still use pyenv for my other use cases.

Note that pyenv support is being deprecated for gef and will soon be removed entirely.

is there a way to disable pyenv temporarily to make gef work? I still want pyenv for other things, having to init it every time gets a bit annoying.

% cat ~/.zshrc
export PYENV_ROOT="$HOME/.pyenv"
[[ -d $PYENV_ROOT/bin ]] && export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(pyenv init -)"
% pyenv versions
* system (set by /home/user/.pyenv/version)

% gdb

@mattzque

You can make it disappear permanently by making a PR removing the pyenv related code.
It was going to be done sooner or later, so you can go for it.
