The premise behind the original behavior is that it would save people from downloading Avocado (and other dependencies) if already installed on the system. To be honest, I think it's extremely rare that the same versions described as dependencies will be available on most systems. But, the biggest motivations here are that: 1) Hacking on QEMU in the same system used to develop Avocado leads to confusion with regards to the exact bits that are being used; 2) Not reusing Python packages from system wide installations gives extra assurance that the same behavior will be seen from tests run on different machines; With regards to downloads, pip already caches the downloaded wheels and tarballs under ~/.cache/pip, so there should not be more than one download even if the venv is destroyed and recreated.
