Steps to replicate the issue:
What happens?:
ERROR: touch.py not found! Misspelling?
What should have happened instead?:
pwb finds and executes the script like python3 pwb.py.
Software version:
current (14dffb0)
Other information:
It finds scripts from ./pywikibot/scripts.
Installing scripts into a site-package instead of relying on the path should fix this.

| Open | BUG REPORT | None | T324287 pwb console script doesn't find scripts in the scripts folder but pwb.py does |
Don't see that scripts are installed. config.userscripts variable must be used to give access to the scripts folder-
Not sure if this is related but calling the pwb version -v command makes the script print different outputs:
(pwbvenv) tools.xxxx@shell-yyyyy:~$ pwb version -v Pywikibot: pywikibot/__init__.py (, -1 (unknown), 2023/01/24, 15:27:17, UNKNOWN) `
whereas:
(pwbvenv) tools.xxxx@shell-yyyyy:~$ python3 pywikibot-core/pwb.py version -v Pywikibot: [https] r-pywikibot-core (b678f2e, g17785, 2023/01/21, 12:29:25, stable)
I tried this solution today and it still didn't work
@PAWS:~$ pwb replace -start:! ERROR: replace.py not found! Misspelling? WARNING: /srv/paws/pywikibot-core/scripts/maintenance does not exists; remove it from user_script_paths @PAWS:~$
The PAWS install of pywikibot is missing the scripts since it was updated to 8.0.0 (T326512). Also, the path is different on PAWS compared to what MarcoAurelio has.
