Willem Fibbe afd899886d Prevent bootstrap-issue on Debian systems with virtualenv package
On Debian 7 (and probably relative distro's) `aptitude show virtualenv` exits
with 0, since it is a virtual package. However, it doesn't have any installation
candidates, so filter on this case before trying to install `virtualenv` to
prevent installation-errors while bootstrapping.

NB, to make this clear:

	(0)#: apt-cache show virtualenv
	N: Can't select versions from package 'virtualenv' as it is purely virtual
	N: No packages found
	(0)#: echo $?
	0

Furthermore, --quiet=0 is necessary, to be able to grep through `apt-cache`'s
output via a pipe. More details on
