error: Failed build dependencies:
python3-devel is needed by virt-manager-2.2.1-1.noarch
as its checking for a distro-packaged 'python3-devel' rather than the pyenv's
installed/available modules/deps
not sure this qualifies as a 'bug' ...
but, since there's apparently no 'setup.py uninstall' available, cleaning's a
bit of a mess.
it'd be quite useful to have the rpm buildable, installable -- and
UNinstallable.
a functional 'setup.py' would be a useful alternative.
