Looking at that, I'm wondering if your line 31 in the "%install"
section should read:
/bin/python3 setup.py install --prefix=%{_prefix} --root=%{buildroot}
As it is now, it's depending on a relative path that gets expanded to
/bin/python3, but if it's in a chroot (and I can't recall if rpm does
a chroot to a working directory) then the chroot probably WON'T have
a /bin/python3 in it. A literal leading slash overrides that, I think.
Try the install again using "rpm -i --test -vv" (NOT dnf) and look at
the output. You might see something.
