I am wondering if the python bindings should be separated into an output.
gnucash:python perhaps. That is the route that the Ubuntu developers seem
to have taken. `apt show python3-gnucash`. It would actually make even more
sense with guix as one could use flatpak-installed gnucash for their daily
usage, and then from their /usr/bin/python3 or $GUIX_PROFILE/bin/python3
they could use gnucash programmatically via the bindings.
However, I am not sure if it is possible to specify a
search-path-specification for a particular output of a package. I don't
know much about splitting packages into outputs either. If we had
gnucash:python, and a user ran `guix install gnucash:python`, would that
only get the user /gnu/store/...-gnucash-x.y-python from the substitute
server and save them bandwidth?
If anybody is willing to give me some pointers as to how I could go about
cleanly splitting gnucash into gnucash:python - with the
native-search-path-specification for PYTHONPATH only being declared for
gnucash:python (and that will be an absolute must), I am more than happy to
