Hi,
I just investigated some failing python packages
<https://ci.guix.gnu.org/eval/16105/dashboard> and found that
"python2-zppe-*" packages fail. (Most due to a dependency failing ,
though. Actually failing are python2-zope-testing and python2-zope-event).
These fail due to sanity-check not being able to import "zope" - which
is a namespace package. Both use the "src directory layout" (source is
contained in a sub-directory "src").
This could be solved by fetching a list og namespace-packages and
checking whether a fails import is a namespace-package. Maybe there are
other solution.
try:
nspkgs = set(dist.get_metadata_lines('namespace_packages.txt'))
except:
nspkgs = set()
Anyhow, since Python2 is EOL since long, I'm not sure whether it's worth
the effort.
WDYT?
