Guix itself is a pretty reasonable package manager for python too.

I've been using Pipenv, but pipenv shell has issues.

I decided to use Guix for it directly like: guix shell -m python-wrapper 
python-requests python-...

Or even making a proper manifest.scm or a guix package.

It's the best, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to make the python 
package managers work.

Hope this helps,
