With help from jpena I was able to identify the root cause of that issue: the fedora-28 image used by rdo zool is broken:
$ virtualenv-3 --help

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

pkg_resources.
This was caused by installation of a newer version pip as root from pypi, one that overriden the system version and also broke virtualenv.
Similar example https:/
This can only be fixed by fixing the image and avoiding to mess the operating system.
PS. If desired, wewer version of pip can safely be installed using `--user`, to avoid messing with the operating system one. If pip and other packages are installed at user level (zuul? root?) it should be safe.
