Is there a Pants built-in way to generate a virtualenv package distribution containing all code+dependencies of a project? TIA :hand:

_Context: that's the deployment requirement for <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/emr/latest/EMR-Serverless-UserGuide/using-python-libraries.html#building-python-virtual-env|Python on EMR serverless>_

Alternatives that would also work are .zip or .egg but so far I experienced the Python .zip produced by Pants to only contain my own code and not the dependencies

Sounds like you want a <https://github.com/pex-tool/pex/|Pex>?
