Also:

1) run the following under the pyvenv/bin/python3 REPL:

from importlib.metadata import distribution
avocado = distribution('avocado-framework')
next((x for x in avocado.entry_points if x.name == 'avocado'))

FWIW here with a similar system I get

EntryPoint(name='avocado', value='avocado.core.main:main',
group='console_scripts')

2) try running "pyvenv/bin/avocado --help" and see if it works
