The location should be:

/path/to/package

Instead I'm getting:

/usr/local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/package

pip version

23.0

Python version

3.11

OS

macOS Ventura 13.1 Beta (22C5044e)

How to Reproduce

Install a python package as folllows:

python3 -m pip install -e /path/to/package

Now, try to show the package's location as follows:

python3 -m pip show package

Output
