 ### Fixed
 - Initialize PDFium's form environment in `get_page_image` so that filled AcroForm field content is included when rendering pages via `Page.to_image()`. ([#1367](https://github.com/jsvine/pdfplumber/issues/1367))
+- Fix `make venv`, which created the virtual environment at `venv/` but then installed into `${VENV}` (default `.venv/`), causing the target to fail on a fresh checkout (h/t @soodoku). ([ec96f72](https://github.com/jsvine/pdfplumber/commit/ec96f72))
 - Include the wrapped exception's class name in `PdfminerException`'s message when `pdfminer.six` raises an exception without one (e.g. `PDFPasswordIncorrect`), which previously surfaced as a blank error message.
