Title:
  python3 -m venv installs pip to incorrect path VENV_ROOT/local/bin/pip

Status in python3.10 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in python3.10 package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  python3 -m venv worked correctly in Ubuntu 21.10:

  # apt update; apt install python3.10-venv
  # python3.10 -m venv /tmp/my-venv
  # . /tmp/my-venv/bin/activate
  # type pip
  pip is /tmp/my-venv/bin/pip
  # pip --version
  pip 20.3.4 from /tmp/my-venv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/pip (python 3.10)

  But in Ubuntu 22.04, it installs pip to the wrong path:

  # apt update; apt install python3.10-venv
  # python3.10 -m venv /tmp/my-venv
  # . /tmp/my-venv/bin/activate
  # type pip
  bash: type: pip: not found
  # pip --version
  bash: pip: command not found
  # echo $PATH
  /tmp/my-venv/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
  # ls /tmp/my-venv/bin
  Activate.ps1  activate.csh   python   python3.10
  activate      activate.fish  python3
  # ls /tmp/my-venv/local/bin
  pip  pip3  pip3.10
