Hah, dumped ~/test-venv/. 

so retry...

$ python3 -m venv ~/test-venv
$ ~/test-venv/bin/pip3 install pytest
$ ~/test-venv/bin/python3
>>> import pytest
>>> dir(pytest)
>>> pytest.__version__

prints out '5.2.2'. argh, string again (in addition to resorting 
to __...__ names/attributes of whatever these are called in python ;).
anyway, even parsing this version string in python than doing it in
shell script would be better...(*)

anything better ?
