> For example, python2-cryptography requires python2-ipaddress. This is
> not required by python-cryptography:
> http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/gnu/packages/python.scm#n5838
>
> Python-oauthlib requires python-cryptography, and thus cannot be
> translated wholly by package-with-python2. Package-with-python2 fails to
> refer to the "hand-made" python2-cryptography that includes
> python2-ipaddress, and insteads attempts to generate it automatically.
> This results in a failed build of python2-cryptopgraphy because
> python2-ipaddress is not being provided. The solution is to remove
> python-cryptography from python2-oauthlib and provide
> python2-cryptography "by hand":
> http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/gnu/packages/python.scm#n2333

> This is especially annoying when a python-2 variant needs to refer to
> more than one of these "hand-made" python-2 packages:
> http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2015-12/msg00921.html
>
> There are many python-3 packages that include python-setuptools, even
> though they build without it. I assume this is to easily take advantage
> of package-with-python2.
