in repository guix.

commit 2c37e36ac6c06c49f73feb7cf03c82958704272a
Author: Hartmut Goebel <address@hidden>

    guix: build all Python packages with --single-version-externally-managed.
    
    This requires setuptools to be installed together with python, which is
    the case for Python 3 anyway and which we do for our build of Python 2
    (see last commit).
    
    * guix/build/python-build-system.scm (install): Add
      "--single-version-externally-managed" and "--root=/" to params to be
      passed to call-setuppy. Remove thus needless manipulation of
      PYTHONPATH.
