e.g. the default virtual environment for the Raspberry Pi AIO would be as follows.
+
+
+
+$ ln -s /usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages/cec /path/to/your/venv/lib/python3.4/site-packages +
ln -s /usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages/cec /srv/hass/hass_venv/lib/python3.4/site-packages
For the default virtual environment of a Raspberry Pi AIO the command would be as follows.
+ +
+
+
+$ ln -s /usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages/cec /srv/hass/hass_venv/lib/python3.4/site-packages +
