New version bug: raise RuntimeError("location not created nor specified")

[cyber778]

Hi, I'm using docker and when I get to this command: RUN pipenv install --system --ignore-pipfile
I see:

This is a new bug since yesterday (latest version release) and it is killing all my ENVs.
My fix was to run: pip install pipenv==2023.6.26

As I'm working on a confidential project I can't share my pipfile but I'm sure this will pop up with others soon enough.

Keep up the good work!

Feel free to open a PR to fix this! I have seldom used either flag --system or --ignore-pipfile and probably never both together. Unfortunately I am tired playing bugfix whack-a-mole and could use some help.

Actually, have you tried 2023.7.3? I can't reproduce this ... and it seems a lot like the bug that was reported yesterday #5772

I am closing this as the duplicate issue report as I believe it was fixed in 2023.7.3
