This package only works with python 2. Actually if you try to build
python-cheetah, you will get:

phase `patch-source-shebangs' succeeded after 0.0 seconds
starting phase `patch-generated-file-shebangs'
phase `patch-generated-file-shebangs' succeeded after 0.0 seconds
starting phase `build'
running "python setup.py" with command "build" and parameters ()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 10, in <module>
    import SetupTools
  File
"/tmp/guix-build-python-cheetah-2.4.4.drv-0/Cheetah-2.4.4/SetupTools.py",
line 50
    except DistutilsPlatformError, x:
                                 ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I followed the other recipes as an example to write this one. Only
python2-cheetah works as expected.

Thank you,
Manolis
